Dear Birthmother adoption letters
Now Playing: war drums
"Dear Birthmother" adoption letters.

It's hard to know what to make of all the "Dear Birthmother" adoption letters soliciting to find healthy babies. Sometimes these letters are addressed to "Dear Birthparent" - but what is a "birthparent"? "Birthparent" is a dehumanizing term that makes moms and dads seem as if they are only baby-production equipment, meant to be used as the source of a baby for adoption. Sometimes there are even siblings - and they get called by the ugly "birth sibling" word.

Interestingly, few married women are ever referred to as the "birthmother" of their child. Yet single mothers and fathers are called "birth objects" even before they have been used for adoption.

"Dear Birthmother" adoption letters?
What a sick game adoption is. The adoption game wrecks lives and breaks hearts.


Open adoption? Where sick games are concerned, open adoption tops the list. Mothers promised a few pictures and letters in exchange for their child! These adoption agencies and lawyers - and individual adopters - should be ashamed!
