One thing that stuck out to me was, that adoption was made out to be an absolute last resort, and even then it needed to be justified. I know a lot of birth mothers that have given their children up for adoption, not because they didn't love them, or because the child would die if they didn't, but because they felt that it was the best choice for them and their child, and wanted something better for their child that they just couldn't provide. There are many blessings to adoption other than "saving" the child, and I wish more people would see that part of it. I don't want to sound like they shouldn't be helping these children find their families, they should, but adoption can also be a beautiful thing.Jacquiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02821612283429530588noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5432474434919393835.post-14651821520982658032011-08-06T00:59:26.655-07:002011-08-06T00:59:26.655-07:00Thank you Candice!
