I am writing a doctoral dissertation on the adoption process. Specifically on the birthmothers interaction with counseling. I am trying to ascertain what percentage of birthmothers were offered counseling, how much, by whom, and for how long. It is my belief, which i am trying to show, that if adoption agencies act more responsibly, if proper and adequete counseling is offered, birthmothers will not have to endure the suffering, the guilt, and sorrow that has already been documented. Please respond if you have any thoughts on this matter.
