Love4, your comments are exactly why I would like to see feedback from a survey such as S'okay is suggesting broken down by time periods. I would hope that ongoing improvement in training, preparation and honest information about circumstances would be verified, but I'm not convinced that's the case. I read so many stories on this site of deceitful practices back in the 50's and 60's and wonder if they still go on. I wonder if they were common-place or rare. I wonder if much has changed when I read about open adoptions that were suddenly closed by one party or the other in spite of signed agreements that apparently have no legal clout. Were all parties informed of that very real possibility? I wonder if all the buracracy that so many people struggle with is helping. And, like you, I wonder why on-going support is not part of the process. Maybe much of this information is available somewhere. I admit I haven't been actively seeking it. But if it isn't, S'okay, you've hit on a topic ripe for research.

Rich
