Your reaction is exactly the reason I was told to very clearly not discuss it. I personally am not comfortable with that....or I would just go with it and not ask about it here.
I think you really need to back yourself up and apply some positive intent. |
Well then, I wouldn't have been the person to match with you huh? For the record, I did ask my son's prospective adoptive mother if she was planning to breastfeed. If she would have said yes, the match would have been over.
I'm not saying that a first mom has to have a say in everything, but you'd be doing that in the hospital right? She completely has a right to know that then, don't you think?
You should put it in your profile, no matter what you're being told. My reaction was honest. Would you prefer lies?
I'm sorry, I don't have positive feelings about adoptive mothers breastfeeding, so I won't be positive about it. I do believe I was supportive in the other thread, so maybe you need to back your accusations up.
