    I know a couple of people that were adopted as children but never get over the feelings that their birth mothers didn't want them. They grew up in loving families but still had abandonment issues. Each case is different but some adoptees suffer from not being able to find their birth families.

    An American Baby is an amazing book. My mother and aunt were pressured to give up their babies and sent to a maternity home. My mom kept it secret for 3 decades and it resulted in trauma. She never got over it.

    When something doesn't quite make sense, there is always a reason. That reason may involve something unthinkable. Who benefits from all of this, and how does this fit in with everything else you already know and strongly suspect??

      Thank you. There is a lot to be said in this conversation. For example in the south in the late 70's it was basically back door adoptions happening. For example my birth certificate doesn't state the hospital I was actually born at. Nothing on it is factual. It also would have been helpful if I was told I have an autosomal disease in my birth family that I have a 50% chance of having and it leads to terminal illness. Please no one's sympathy. Just educate yourselves on what is really going on here in the US and its adoption policies.

    I'm...I'm not the only one who thinks she looks like the Who the Grinch had a thing for, right?
