I feel that I need to clear a few things up on here. The adoption that I origionally created this thread about is not a gift in the sense that everyone is talking about. My friend had a relationship with a guy who wants nothing to do with the child and she would, knowing me personally, rather me raise her child knowing that she can not accomplish this under current conditions in her life. I also have been adopted and while I am glad for the better life I agree that it is hard for everyone in the situation. Another thing about this birth is that children and youth have been involved with her and they also are telling her she cannot keep the child. So once again this is not one of the types where she is having the baby because of me. I just felt that needed to be verified.
