Violetmoon: on Adoption
Welcome to my page on adoption. As a birth mom, adoption is obviously something that has permenantly touched my life. It also touches the lives of all my family members, my adopted kids, their adoptive families, and everyone who cares about/loves them too. Adoption affects everybody.It is amazing to me how many people are emotionally affected by one adoption, in one way or another. Here is a brief look at my story and some of my views on adoption, and some fabulous links. Adoption has been a part of my life . . . . I have had three children in my life, and the first and last I relenquished to adoptive families. These children are now 13(boy), and 8(girl.)
I loved these children very much. But due to my personal emotional struggles and my lack of financial stability, I thought them better off with people more stable than I was back then.
To adoptive parents I would like to say: Remember that there is a mother out there somewhere that loves your adopted child as much as you do . . . maybe more . . . because she loved that child enough to entrust that child with you. Birthmoms are not lurking kiddnappers who want to 'steal' their babies back like you might see on late night television dramas. They are just moms who want to know how their child is doing, feeling, growing, learing, developing, and so on. Birthparents give you a gift of joy, and in return they have given themselves the pain of longing and loss. Be kind to birthparents. They are just human beings like yourself who have one huge thing in common with you: love for your child.
Birthparents: Never stop wondering or searching, I think it is worth the effort. And, advice I should often take myself . . . don't be too hard on yourself. Below are Two Great Opportunities to Explore The Many Sides of Adoption, Including Reunion Registries. What Do You Have to Lose?
