Barbara Walters TOTALLY appologized this morning, on one of the morning news shows, for the way this segment had been marketed.....she said it had been handled poorly.....and she was sorry. She said the offensive spin had been removed from the promos and that, again, she was sorry.
She explained that the adoptive couples in this segment WANTED their stories to be told, in order to shed some light into the intensely personal journey that adoption is. She said they didn't want the veil of secrecy to be surrounding the process any longer.....
The birthmom wanted folks to understand open adoption and the emotions/decisions that birthmothers endure.
I, personally, think it will be a valuable resource.
