The facts presented do not include the research done by psychologists that is not presented publically and are prolific in the damage done not only to children, but mothers. This includes articles published in Psychology Today - you really should read it.
This Blog is Authored by First Mothers and Adoptees to enlighten and teach and hopefully help others to see adoption in a realistic light. This is a new blog dedicated to the First Mothers and Adoptees of the past. We, as a group, are the silent members of the Adoption Triad. Our voices are not often heard and we have nothing to gain or lose in this process.

Video about Open Adoption
I did this video about open adoption because I think that a lot of young women don't grasp the reality of what they are agreeing to. I am hoping that I can reach even just one ...
