I know it’s fiction, but Karen turned out to be a phenomenal human being. Instead of saving the baby merch for another child she could adopt (or just being resentful), she handed it over to the source of her greatest disappointment b/c she truly cared about the baby. How lovely. It makes the ending more beautiful.
"the source of her greatest disappointment"
Pretty sure she has a name.
Indeed!❤ Well said…
I think she cared about the birth mother too.
I feel so sad for people who can’t have a baby but have so much love to give!!!
i got pregnant at 15. my daughter is three now. im 19. shes sitting next to me and i just started bawling. 😭😭😭
I had my first at 14 and it changed my life scary but a blessing this one hurt

She did the right thing. The baby will thank her one day❤
But sometimes people let it seems like ur a bad mom when clearly as a mother that don't have it is trying to give the child a better life that it's impossible for you as a mother to give at the moment.
This^^^^ I know a few women who did give their babies up for adoption when they were much younger and they were very proud of their decision and we met in college and they really stood by it and how they had the ability to go to college and they met the family and their child had the chance at a wonderful life now. I also think people forget that there are open adoptions where there are sometimes circumstances where a child will still eventually ask about or know the biological parent when it's the right time and place to do so. It doesn't always mean that parent is gone forever.
Sometimes loving someone is doing what is best for them and that is really really hard.
I had my son when I was 19. It was definitely incredibly difficult!! I was lucky and had a good support system though. My boy is nearly 10 years old now! When I was pregnant with him I had a choice to make. Somehow though I couldn't bare to give him up. My situation wasn't ideal but better than the girl here for sure. It's not easy but I'm thankful everyday I get to be his mommy.
This happened a lot. When you thought about giving up a baby and one minute its born. They decided to keep it. I would say this is about what's best for the baby. If you are going to put up with it or you believe your baby will have a better chance with a new family. Ut doesn't mean your a bad mom. It shows how much you are willing to care about their upbringing and know that they are loved.
Same I was so back and forth finally right at 8months I backed out
i had my son at 17 and like her i planned to put him up for adoption but my parents wouldn’t let me they wanted him😭 either way i ended up changing my mind when i gave birth. and it’s the best decision i’ve ever made. boy did this hit close😭❤️
Nowadays most adoptions are Open. The birth mother can be involved in the baby's life. Get pictures and updates of how her birth child is doing and keep in touch with the adoptive parents. It's not like it was in the 1950s. She can know how her child is doing if she and the birth parents agree to an open adoption.
Even an open adoption has no guarantees.
The adoptive family can one day just decide that they're done "sharing" and because they're the full, legal parents, the bio mom has no say.
Just like the bio mom can agree to the adoption up until birth and just change her mind and the adoptive couple is SOL.
Nothing matters outside the four corners of a legal contract and most of those sweet little promises in order to get it signed get dismissed because they're not legally binding.
@@thatvalensteingirl yes and that’s why you make sure you have it in writing it’s an actual open adoption when it’s being written up. You can decide what you want done. I was looking into adoption at first and I went through all of this
@@piinkam0r even then the birth parent has no legal say on what is/isn't shared and its upto the legal parents. No adoption is fully open untill 18 and legally binding and if that individual crosses any boundary the adoptive parents can and do often close that contact
@@cloudedcolour5329 yes it is when it’s happening you have a say so. The birth parents I chose lived in a complete different state and they wanted an open adoption sending me pics, I could have convos etc and we were getting it added in the adoption contract before the judge
There is no such thing as "open adoption", because even if there is a contract the adoptive parents who took legal guardianship can at any time deny visitation, contact, images, etc. Majority adoptions are closed within the first 5 years against the wishes of the birth mother (i don't remember the exact stat but you can look it up).
I have the utmost respect for Women who give their babies up for adoption,that has to be one of the hardest things to do.
Unfortunately it's still stigmatised.
It's hard it's the hardest thing to do ..
No, those women need to grow up and be the mother those children deserve. Adoption is selfish
@@sarahbevan3900
Keeping the baby can be even more selfish, because it's not the baby's welfare that is uppermost in the birth mother's mind, it's about what she wants.
@@sarahbevan3900not everyone can be a mom. It's very strong knowing this and giving your baby to someone who can be a good parent to the child. It's weak keeping the baby, telling yourself you are a good mom, but actually neglecting the child.
I think the hospital staff did the right thing convincing her to give the baby up. She was clearly unprepared for motherhood, the adoptive parents were paying her rent, and she broke down at the first little bump in the road. The hard reality is that she just wasn’t ready, no matter how much she loved the baby.
there is no right time for anyone nobody’s ever prepared there’s never a late time learning things adoption isn’t something that’s necessary for everyone so mhm don’t judge
nobody’s ever ready shush
@AvaGevingOfficial her situation is different though. although she loved the baby, she just wasn't ready with everything else happening in her life, and she made the best decision for her kid so he can have a good life
@AvaGevingOfficial maybe people aren’t completely ready but some are far less ready than others. The mother was completely alone, had no one to support her, was so poor the adoptive parents were paying rent for her, and broke down at the first little bump in the road. Meanwhile the adoptive parents were much more ready for parenthood than she was. Maybe someday in the future she’ll be more ready, but right now, she wasn’t ready enough.
@@colleenodriscoll8914i got pregnant in july i am not employed myself or prepared do we all have to have a job to be prepared etc it’s good yeah but it’s not always like this so whatever
It's BECAUSE you love him so much you give him up. My Godsister had an open adoption. She has a beautiful relationship with the family and her child. ❤ 19 in this world now? That would be a whole new level of hard and especially without a supportive structure. I applaud and send love to any and all people out their making it happen. But she made the right call here for them both. ❤
First off, no matter how prepared, a baby crying especially a newborn, will make mom perk up and take notice. After birth, a mom's hormones are a roller coaster, happiness, joy, fear, excitement, anxiety. So her changing her mind is perfectly acceptable. She derserves the chance to be the mother she waanted her mother to be.
I have so much respect for people who give their babies up for adoption, it must be so so hard. but the way the man said “ but you said you didn’t want to “ give a little respect to her, she just gave birth to YOUR child. she didn’t have to, but she did. it’s a bit disrespectful on how people treat people that just gave birth to their child, not all humans do, just some.
Kinda surprised no one considered letting the kid have 3 parents
It's all sad, when someone finds themselves in a bad situation. But, the baby has to always be 1st priority, they don't ask to be born. And I am so gald their is loving family willing to love and adopt. And now days, there are a lot of open Adoption that work out very well.
In Utah you have 3days to make up your mind to keep him or give him up
I get it its heartbreaking cause the adoptive parents waited for so long to finally be parents but as a mother going into labor herself and hearing her baby cry ofc its emotional and ofc your going to change your mind
That baby has every chance in the world now to be a good boy and a good man when he grows up those are two good parents to raise them they've got money to raise him
Two parents doesn’t mean a good life…
people are ridiculous. no, you don't know if he has "every chance." People who have money don't raise their children better than those who don't have money, it's not a factor at all. thinking money is what you need is probably why so many people grow up entitled and rude
People shouldn't bully, manipulate, or guilt other people into giving up their kids. It's hard as it is to figure things out. But living with that guilt and what if no one should go through that.
I cried so hard when Hannah started crying
Why would you have the young mother call her own mother? Why not help her find a home for young mothers so she csn keep her baby while learning how to take care of him and herself? Asking her to call her own mother is highly manipulative! And unethical.
The problem lies more with the fact that she was completely unprepared to raise a child. As far as I know, the adoptive parents paid for her rent, which means she doesn't have a stable income. And as seen, her own mother wasn't ready to care for both her daughter and grandson. So, if she tried to crash at her mother's place, she would have been thrown out, something you don't want to experience at this stage.
I think calling her mother helped her dodge a horrible scenario and also made her realise that she is alone with that child. I don't know if there is a place young mothers can go to be taken care of and she definitely doesn't have the money to hire a nurse or nanny. Like I said, she pretty much is unprepared, so a little reality check was actually needed 😅
The mother isn’t thinking practical. It’s the hormones and emotions mixed in
@@RoteKirschblueteThe adoptive parents were paying her to get her baby. Basically they are buying the baby. But that doesn't make it right to pressure her to give up her child. It is morally wrong.
@@OctoberOctopusM yes and no. there is a lot of gray area here in that regard. honestly what probs would’ve been best would be for the adoptive parents to take the baby and have an open adoption where hannah can come visit or babysit while seeing a therapist to work through all the emotions. giving birth is an extremely hormonal thing that totally screws up a persons emotions and can affect rational thinking. there is what is best for the baby and what is best for hannah. both deserve a good life and happiness and trust me single mothers don’t always have the easiest life. the nurse wasn’t trying to pressure her she was trying to get hannah to see the big picture and future in front of her to decide whether she REALLY felt capable and ready to raise that baby. it’s clear that all of them would support her choice regardless of what it ended up being even if they didn’t necessarily agree with it but she was making a very impulsive decision which is totally understandable given the circumstances.
No, the girl openly stated this was HER PLAN and the nurse needs to know the teen and child have a safe home with heat and running water to go to when they leave the hospital bc it's called being a mandated reporter and doing her job. It was also to get the teen to realise that her plans were not realistic as she had told the nurse that her mother was not supportive and would not be there for the birth and then after the child was born she recanted and claimed she was going to live with her mother. . . .who she doesn't get along with. The teen was not thinking clearly and wanted things that were not possible and didn't have the resources to care for herself (the adoptive parents were paying for her) or the child. The nurse can't turn a 3 day old infant out onto the street so the next call would be Social Services.
He’s so beautiful❤
I got prgnant at 14 and had my baby at 15 and im 18 now and my daughter is 3 years old now
Get well soon Diana😢❤
Adoption is one of the hardest things in the world. One person's incredible pain means incredible joy for other people. The girl in this show was wise enough to know she couldn't raise him. But there are many who are far worse possibilities for motherhood who choose to keep their babies, and those kids don't have a very good life. We adopted 2 babies a year apart from the same birth mother. She would not have done a good job, she knew it, and she gave them to us.
I will say this about adoption: no baby or child ends up in any home by accident. If an adoption falls through at the last minute, thank the good Lord, because that was not your child. I've known families that had many fall through before they finally were given a baby. That little one was meant to be theirs.
Had me in tears
This young girl is a good example of a girl who NEEDS TO PUT HER BABY UP FOR ADOPTION. NO EXCUSES.
ANYONE WHO THINKS SHE NEEDS TO KEEP THE BABY SO SHE SUFFERS THE CONSEQUENCES OF LIVING A PROMISCUOUS LIFE, IS MAKING THE BABY SUFFER.... NOT HER
No. Your wrong. This happens
@@theamazingpoof2205What happens?
It is so sad that her mother made her give up her child.
Nobody is entitled to someone else’s baby. The modern day adoption process is manipulative and cruel and exploitive to birth mothers. 19 is young but she’s an adult. Always keep your baby.
Make the best decision for the child. If you can't, someone can.
That teen mom will be tired of this baby in 2 weeks
I hate this video. Shouldnt pressure the mom to give up baby
I’m sorry but I don’t think this was handled correctly . I think that the birth mother wasn’t give a fair chance and recourses she needed to make a fair and wise decision and that the hospital staff did nothing to help her but convince her that she would follow through with her plan to give him away . The adoptive family also could have done a lot better Handel if the situation as well they could have a open adoption giving her the chance to be in his life and see him how ever many times a year that she could inorder for this kid to grow up knowing his birth mother as well as his adoptive parents . Forming a bond and stabilizing this young man for life and not leaving so many unanswered questions . Just cause your toung doesn’t mean you can’t raid a child and just cause your adopting doesn’t always mean that the birth family should be cancelled out completely
100 percent agree! I can't believe all these people in the comments!
How do you know it wasn't an open adoption? Most are these days. The fact that they know each other and they were there for the birth points to it being open. Closed adoptions don't work like that.
I 100% agree with this comment the birth mother should of had that chance to raise him even with the help of the adoptive parents and then if she decides that it’s to hard then she can make that choice she had no support network which makes it even harder 💔
@tiannahcollard5969 She made an agreement.
If she doesn't want that, that is fine, but she would need to support her child.
Everything that is said indicates she has no money and no support system.
The adoptive parents have money and might even have support.
So maybe it is not best for her, but it seems better for the child.
A child needs more then love, it also needs food and other stuff.
@@hannahwinterhalder741and she had every right to change her mind
I know this is supposed to be sad but doesn’t the nurse look like Ella from d4
i was going to say that!
My daughter was 19 when she had Cameron,hes now 10 years old
This was so freaking sad🥺
I was adopted (newborn)
My and sis (toddler)
Does anybody know the song playing at the end?
The will mother have right to keep baby
I can’t believe she decided not to give up the baby and then she gave up the baby
Ok if she what him thay just should of said that is ok you carry him for 9 months straight so have him I no thay what him but can’t thay just share
Not sure where the narrative of “they were put up for adoption because their parents didn’t want them” came from. From my understanding, most adoptions are like this. The bio parents are unable to properly support and care for the child, so they give them so they can have a better life. It’s not about not loving the kid. It’s about loving them enough to want them to have more than you’re able to give them.
It aint about being ready
Girl has no stable home no supporting mother or really anyone to help her. She has no clue how to even begin to take care of a baby. The fact that he was crying in the car and she was already upset because she had no clue how to make him stop. Not to mention that she wasn’t even planning on keeping the baby in the first place and already promised him to a wonderful couple who already has everything ready to care for him. Only for her hormones to kick in at full force and make her change her mind at the last minute. Once she calms down and the hormones have passed she will see that she made the right decision not keeping him. Realizing that she is completely unprepared to care for a baby.
Though if the three talk afterwards I’m hoping that they can at least allow supervised visits if and most likely will still be feeling the connections and at least give her the chance to be in the baby’s life. It sounds like she had pretty crappy mother that doesn’t even care about her. This could also be a chance for she herself to find a new home and family that cares about her.
I know it’s a long shot but hey I like thinking on the upside and that something amazing might happen in the end.😊
Nowadays there are open adoption so she could still be a part of his life.
I kinda feel sorry for the birth mom but at the same time she also seems like an awful human being. Dangling the adoptive parents' hearts around like that.
idk about awful, she’s just immature and clearly not prepared to keep the baby even though she’s feeling emotional
@@MsMaryPatriciaI totally agree with what you said. I myself didn't want kids, however my body hates me, im highly fertile and get pregnant very very easy even on contraception and im not talking about the pill as anyone can mess that up but even depo injection and the implant dont work, im 48 and should be in menopause yet i had my 14th miscarriage 2 months ago, and I'm now on both the implant and the pill !!. After my 6th miscarriage I was told id never carry due to not producing enough pregnancy hormone to keep baby, but I did manage to kind of carry twice, both were very premature one born at 31 weeks the other 26 weeks, and I only got them because I was apparently carrying twins and my body was confused after I lost one, and I was threatening misscarrige from 6weeks with both of them. But for someone who never wanted or planned to have kids, I even had both prenatal and postnatal depression, things changed after I saw them. Although I still wouldn't want anymore and can't wait until my Dr decides I am old enough for the sterilisation I've been asking for the past 20 years, apparently I'm too young for it, well that's what I've been told every time I've asked them every year, however they have now said im old enough to have a interview to see is they will do it now so its a small step towards my goal of having my womb removed and i cant wait 😀
That’s why the law gives birth mothers the right to change their mind.
She wasn't messing them around out of cruelty.
I could never give a baby up if i cant even give a cat up to someone else 😂😂😂 on the other hand i could never my hope for a family on some other person either i have my own or i adopt but a straight orphan not like that
why is she pushing her so hard to give the baby up
Is Angel the guy from the Britney Spears video?
I gave my daughter up at 17 hardest thing I ever had to do but I knew I was just to young my grandparents wanted her I wish i gave them that chance as I could of still been apart of her life she will be 13 on the 16th of march I have other kids now and am there for all of them I think my first baby helped me grow and make better decisions I just wish I could of done it for her too 💔🤍
I mean it worked out and I love adoption but things didn’t feel right about this. might just be me
What about the father? This is why fathers should have the right, by force of law, to have equal say about the disposition of an unborn. He is not even mentioned. What a fiasco. If he was mentioned, it would be in a vicious and disparaging manner. Sorry (not sorry) to rain on your parade, but it is not 'all about her'. Without his seed, there would be no baby or video.
He was mentioned as a “one night stand” so its very likely he wouldnt have anything to do with the pregnancy.
i feel like she only cared about the adoptive parent. there was so many ways she could’ve helped her if she was that gunho about sticking her nose where it didn’t belong
This is disgusting she's 19, not a toddler, everyone's blaming the mom but this happens often*
What's disgusting?
😮😮😮🎉😢❤❤
I know there is alll kinds of missing context to this. Considering we have only seen a 10min clip for an hour long show (and the 1hr stilll wouldn't be enough) but the nurse was WAY over out of line. The young mother needed support but it shouldn't have been in this way, and certainly not from this nurse.
She manipulated the entire situation. From both sides.
No she did what was best for the baby
She's a nurse and understands the rush of hormones after a pregnancy that causes a change like this. Girl was living in a house with 5 other people, couldn't pay rent, and had no familial support. This wasn't a situation a pep talk was ever going to fix..
My baby was a result of a 2 night stand😂. I only slept with him 2 times. I first wanted an abortion, but when I couldn't get one because Ihad no money for it and no transportation, I decided on adoption. It was going to work out, and the one and only reason I ended up keeping the baby is because my mom threatened to kick me out if I went through with it. So now I'm a single mom to an almost 3 year old and I will not be having sex again until I get sterilized
I’m sorry you went through that. Adoption is a beautiful option for women who don’t want to keep a baby or aren’t ready to be parents.
If you're yt, have 2 more, as long as they're yt.
@@whiteyonthemoon1193 what is YT?
@@BRUNETTECANARYgood luck with getting sterilisation, I've been begging to have it done for over 20 years and they say every year im too young.!! Yet here I am 48 highly fertile and can get pregnant even on contraception and im not talking about the pill as anyone can mess that up but even depo injection and the implant dont work on me, im actually on both the implant and the pill now to try and avoid getting pregnant and having my 15th miscarriage, I'm highly allergic to condoms so they are not even a option. I had my 14th miscarriage 2 months ago, I'm 48 I should be in menopause and not able to get pregnant but here I am 🙄 I've asked again to be fully sterilised I want everything gone including my womb as I'm taking any chances and now I'm 48 they have referred me for the interview but they may still refuse to do it. I hope you get it sorted but because your so young they may refuse to do it. In that case I recommend going on the implant you get it put in and replace in 3 years and unless your like me it will work, oh and the upside of both depo and the implant no periods !! Good luck xx 😊
@@annied1827 hysterectomy is what you should have asked for in the first place. Even teenage girls who have been diagnosed with reproductive cancer, have hysterectomies.

This is gross, she is 19 not a toddler. This is how you grow up, figure your life out, you better yourself, you love, you do not get rid of your kid. They're pushing her so hard to do it too. Ew. Kids are good, family is good ❤
Agreed over 9000%
Would rather her force herself to take care of him or let him have a better life
@@Fellkunwould rather force her. She chose to have sex and get pregnant. Pregnant girls women need to be more responsible
@@alexandramoyer8785 Absolutely not. We don't force a child onto someone because they had to learn a lesson. We don't take someone's mistake out on a literal child. Get over yourself.
Not everyone is cut out to be parents. Giving a kid up for adoption is far better than some of the alternatives if she doesn’t want a kid.
I’m 19 and pregnant and I’m keeping my baby I love the baby already but I still don’t think it was right for what she did she abandoned her baby in a back pack to DIE !
Wrong episode.
this isn’t the episode lmao wrong person you’re ruining it
These parents are awful. Not letting the mom see him.
Most moms giving their baby up for adoption don't want to see the baby. Makes it harder. But, at no point in this clip did they refuse to let their birth mom see the baby, so....
Lol
what’s funny to you?
Wdym lol like what is funny
This show is a dupe of greys anatomy like that girl is the dupe of Christina

When u have a kid u grow up and take care of the baby not give it up
I was adopted at birth. My adoptive parents tried for eight years before considering adoption. They met a woman who was planning on giving her child up for adoption, but she changed her mind last minute. The , my adoptive parents met my birthmother, and everything went so smoothly. I couldn’t imagine anyone else being my parents. They were the ones I was meant to have, and I respect my birtmother so much for making that difficult decision.
Thank you to all women who made similar decisions.
I had a baby, my senior year of high school and a few months after turning 18. I planned on keeping him, but I knew I couldn't. He was born at 28 weeks due to severe complications. My mom made the best decision and now I have the best little brother who turns 9 this year. He doesn't know who I am to him, but damn. The look on my mom's face when I admitted I wanted him in my life but knew I couldn't let him go, and made the suggestion she adopted him is one I'll never forget. Sometimes we want to be mothers, but know at the time we are severely no prepared to be and we make the best decisions possible, even if it means someone else is their mom/dad.
Wow! What a sacrifice you made. Big hugs!! ❤
Your Mom sounds like an incredibly special person. Not all mothers would do that. I just hope you realize that one day when he's older you'll need to tell him the truth. Secrets like this have a way of coming out especially in this day and age when so much information is available, but you have quite a while before you'll need to worry about it.
God Blessed you and your mom to keep your baby in your life ❤
Your own son doesn't know you're not his not sister and you're actually his mom? Thats wild.
A friend of mine was adopted by her aunt and didn't find out till her bio dad d!ed and a relative blurted something out.
My friend spiraled, had an Ed, harmed herself, and got pregnant and addicted to drvgs at 18 because of the trauma.
It's not my family but I thought I'd share this story to show how dangerous family secrets can be. Best of luck.
If true, I hope youre aware that you are going to have to tell him the truth one day
Being a 19 year old girl and choosing whether or not to keep a baby.
and???????
@@AvaGeving she either had to keep the baby or give the baby away
Wow the baby cried one time and the nurse is like well guess you can’t handle it , might as well give your son up.
I know these medical dramas are fiction and written for bored hours wives, but still their extremely generic middle aged tropes make me sick. Proof that mainstream values aren't actually moral.
the one thing i couldn't stand was hannah's mother. how could she just straight up refuse her and the baby like that. no matter what my child had been through i would always want her to know that she can come to me for help and support. i would never turn her down in her hour of need.
My grandmother had my dad at 19, while my grandpa was 21 and fighting in Vietnam- she thought so hard about if she wanted to keep him or give him up- but she chose to keep him and my dads become very strong up to now even after I came along. This girl who’s willing to give her a baby a better life despite what’ll happen shows that she’s a committed mom who just wants the best for her baby, I’m sure when that boy grows up, he’ll be forever grateful to her!
i wouldve asked for open adoption, middle ground. Ypu have the freedom to still be young and have your life but also to know your child and have them know you all in. Be in their life still and know they are ok
there’s so many romanticizing pregnancy especially for teenagers and stereotyping crap 😔 i feel bad for the young woman
@AvaGevingOfficial Who romanticises teenage pregnancy? Everyone makes fun of teenage pregnancy, including myself.
@@Anonymous-io9vpthis show is from 2009-2010 which is exactly when shows like Teen Mom and 16 and Pregnant were getting popular.
@@hexes5122 Surely, these shows are trying to shed light on the fact that teenage pregnancy does exist and it is common, maybe these shows act like deterrents.
the adoptive parents seemed very very rude about things the bio mother has the right and laws are laws obviously so let’s remember to not judge or shame ❤ bonding is so important
Ok, now imagine the adoptive parents being excited for weeks or months for the child. Maybe they are infertile. Imagine hoping for something and right at the finish the second you touched it it gets ripped out of your hands. They paid so much for it. The baby stuff, the bio mom's rent. They were upset rightfully.
No the hospital didn't have any right to convince bio mom about the adoption and yes, bio mom had every single right keeping the baby. However the adoptive parents were rightfully upset since they were promised to have that baby. So no, they were absolutely not rude. Karen was even so nice to offer her the stuff instead of throwing them out or let it get dusty somewhere in their home.
@@antares8476as much as they are excited. that gives them no right to interfere with how nature works. a moms love works in crazy ways. they have every right to be upset but there’s no comparison. it’s always the mother.
@@floatsyourboats6843 love means zilch if the mother is not mature or stable enough to take care of a child. Don't blind the needs of a baby with emotions.
Well in reality the birth mother gets all the day so who’s in the room included and is really the first who gets to even hold the baby after birth. No one can even hold the baby until after the mother. Even with the adoptive parents paying everything she birth mother can do that , that’s true by legal rights the birth mother has a certain amount of days to change her mind after the adoption is finalized. And it’s not THEIR baby nothing has been signed for the adoptiob
@floatsyourboats6843 It's not even about the mother's reaction or thae adoptive parents.
It is about what is best for the child and the adoptive parents (to me) seem more capably
It takes move love to give a baby up than to keep it. We were blessed by 2 sets of parents I will ever be great ful to that they saw they were not able to be parents and gave their children to us who were unable to have children. I love both sets of birth parents who gave the ultimate gifts to us.
I really dislike this episode! Every new mom has these thoughts and feers! I'm glad nobody was there to make me feel inadequate like they did to this new, scared mother.
Agreed… I completely understand. This is not ok. I was a teen mother, no one made me feel this way.
I wouldn’t dare enter into an adoption unless the contract and laws were iron clad to prevent the birth mom from taking him/her back.
I've always planned to adopt a kid, but I wouldn't want anyone to give up their kid unless they were absolutely sure. That's selfish. Tons of other kids out there for me. There is only this one blood related child for that mom.
Couldn't have said it better myself ❤
Well it doesn’t work that way. Even after signing a birth mother has so many days to change her mind.
That’s not how adoption works. Birth mother always has a certain amount of time to change her mind.
I do get it and it's why many people do use an agent or an agency over person to person because an agency dealing with notifying you they have a healthy baby for you to come pick up from a mother with no drug/illicit substance history can be easier than the roller coaster of having this happen, let alone happen multiple times as it would be heart breaking to prepare for a boy and then the next person is set to have a girl and you redo your nursery and then they back out too and it would just feel like you were never going to adopt a child and in this case and others there was also the fact they were financially supporting the mother by paying rent and some also require nutritional support and other things. . . .it would really hurt.
Thankfully Open Adoptions are an option where a bio mom can be sent pictures and updates so it's to like the baby is gone and they never see them again and they do sometimes have a relationship with the child later when the child is old enough to learn they were adopted and they kind of end up with three parents and it can make the bio mom feel better about handing the child over because they are not "gone" forever. In the cases I have known this has worked well for the bio mom has gone to college and gotten a degree and gone on to get a career and the child is usually old enough to find out they were adopted and start seeing bio mom occasionally and learn what she made of herself by that point. It can be really good for all involved.
This is why they should not let the adoptive parents get involved until the biological mother and father have relinquished custody.
Very tough decision 😮😢
I had my child when I was 19. She's 5 now and I'm so glad I didn't ever want to give her up! It would've broken me to do that. The people that do put their kids up for adoption are doing something incredibly selfless!
I had my daughter at 17 and my son at 19. I had considered giving my son up for adoption. I knew the family and they were great, but my family supported me so that I could raise my children. I kept hoping that Hannah could keep her baby but I know she made the right choice. I pray that we support every mother who ever has to make a decision like that no matter what she chooses to do. I’m glad that her doctor supported her either way. My kids are now 20 and 22. They are very successful and the most amazing humans I’ve ever had the pleasure of knowing. This was a great episode, thanks for posting!

I have no hate towards women who give their kids up I feel like when god gives u something it’s supposed to be Precious not judging it’s just how I feel
I feel bad for the young mother. But she already made a promise to the couple that they can have her child. A promise is a promise; you shouldn't be allowed to back out just because of last minute motherly instincts kicking in.
Besides, she clearly does not have the means to care for a child if she can barely take care of herself. She needs to do what's best for the baby, not for herself. And if that means letting him be raised by a loving couple in a stable home, so be it. They can arrange it to where she can visit whenever she wants, but he needs a stable home. And she needs to rebuild her life and look after herself. She needs to start making a life for herself and use this experience as a learning curve. So that the next time she ends up pregnant, she will be able to actually take care of a child along with herself.
It happens people change their minds.
you can opt out you don’t have to stay committed people change minds it’s the birth moms right to know what she wants in her heart adoption is a scammy business and it’s horrible i’ve heard many bad stories someone i’m close with spoken up about the agency being corrupt which is true they lie too and you don’t see your baby again even sadly if it’s open. it doesn’t matter it’s a scam 😢
and like i said even if it was an open adoption illegally the adoptees can change minds at any time about rules and shi it’s illegal too
@@AvaGeving Of course scams can happen. There are bad people in literally every profession. Doesn't mean that adoption in general is bad. Major hormones are impacting this young woman's decision after the baby's birth.
What is the name of this series, where can I watch the full episode?
All these shows are based on true stories
I'm mother
Always keep your baby. Adoption is very damaging for babies and birth mothers forever.
Not in all cases. Some people don’t deserve to have kids
And this is why adoption "because you couldnt have kids of your own" is so repugnant
19yo is already an adult.. it has always been an absolutely normal age to have children but not without a support system though. It would be nice when people think more before having sex about potential consequences and that applies to everybody not only teens.
Basically no one has a support system anymore
