http://www.adoption-truth.com/2013_08_01_archive.html
Friday, August 30, 2013. Dear Christy Maldonado . . . You don’t know me and I don’t know you. Though I have had the opportunity to communicate and learn more of the truth about your attorney,. For you, though, I know it goes much further than that. In all that has happened with your daughter, Veronica Rose Brown, you are either hailed as a saint for giving your baby away or a monster for trying to take away Dusten Brown’s chance to keep and raise his child. I recently read the. What is undisputed is that...

Adoption Truth: Repeat After Me
http://www.adoption-truth.com/2015/04/repeat-after-me.html
Thursday, April 9, 2015. Okay, sit back, get comfortable, clear your throat and repeat after me . . . The promise of Birth Mother privacy is a lie! Let’s say it one more time . . . The promise of Birth Mother privacy is a lie! I have yet, in the many years I’ve been a part of the fight for Adoptee Rights and Adoption Reform, come across a First (Birth) Mom who was promised privacy. And I have never seen a single piece of legal paper guaranteeing such a thing. Sealing away our children’s birth certi...

Thursday, April 25, 2013. Open Is A Myth. Verall, I’m not a huge fan of open adoption. I firmly believe the accepted practice, that is the norm in today’s world, is just as damaging and painful as closed adoption. 8220; When the mother can see first hand, how important the adoption is to the family, it is more difficult for her to back out and disappoint them. 8221; – Adoptions Don’t Have To Be A Secret - -. 8221; – Birthmother, Good Mother - -. What rational ability does a First Mother truly have to hir...

Thursday, May 9, 2013. Remembering On Mother's Day. T’s that time again, isn’t it. Time for Mother’s Day and Birth Mother’s Day. If anyone has read my blog long enough they already know my feelings and opinions about Birth Mother’s Day. And I don’t want to go there again this year. Instead, I just want a post that remembers the many mothers who have lost their children through adoption who will hurt this Mother’s Day while so many others celebrate. So many adoptive parents will celebrate on Sunday withou...

Sunday, March 17, 2013. 8220;Will we be extremists for the preservation of injustice or for the extension of justice? Martin Luther King Jr. I get so tired of adoption. So tired of the injustices that come with it. For something that is so easily accepted as being all about an overflow of love and happiness, there is an awful lot of pain and hell involved. Something I was reminded about all over again these last couple of months. 8221; to the woman society deemed as “ better. She paid money, she believed...

Tuesday, May 13, 2014. I Love Being A Fertile Woman. For over a decade now, my wonderful husband and I – and sometimes our wonderful kids – make a yearly visit to New Orleans. The only year we missed was the year of Katrina. But we were back the very next year, loving our favorite place even during its struggle to come back to life after such horror and heart ache. This year, our trip isn’t planned till October. And after coming across a post on the. I Love Adoption / Adoption.com Facebook page. But, I c...

Tuesday, April 15, 2014. Heidi Russo . . . You STILL Don't Speak For Me. Ironic, isn’t it, on my post. 8220;Heidi Russo . . . You Don’t Speak For Me”. Heidi, herself, leaves a response that in her very first sentence has her attempting to speak for me, instructing me to use the coercive language of the adoption industry . . . something I absolutely refuse to do. And the minute you chose to use your son’s celebrity status to your advantage you had a responsibility to learn all sides of adoption befo...

Tuesday, January 6, 2015. Scream Until It Hurts. When my middle son was just a baby, I worked at a day care center that included infant care – it was all about the benefit of reduced child care costs and being able to work while still being near my baby. Unfortunately, that never happened. It was determined that Baby Garrett died from SIDS (Sudden Infant Death Syndrome) and there was nothing we could have done to save him. A few weeks ago, my Grandson – my second grandchild – was born. An...Over twenty-s...

Friday, January 31, 2014. This article, Facebook Status: Social Media Baby Boom. Is the kind of stuff fairy tales are made of . . . Infertile couple desperately wants a child to call their own, vulnerable, pregnant mother sees their profile on Facebook, gives birth and hands her baby away to infertile couple and everyone rides off happily ever after into the sunset. Why should any one of us care if the mother was caught in a desperate, vulnerable state? 8220;Hey, we wanted a baby so much, and your First ...

Thursday, January 17, 2013. N all the years I've been a part of the fight for adoption reform and family preservation, in all the different First Moms I have come to know, the many stories and experiences I have heard, there is one overwhelming similarity we all share . . . But they are so far from the norm. So far from what I hear, over and over again, in the world of adoption . . . 8220;I wish I could keep my baby . . . but . . . “. They claim every mother should have the “right” to give up...We should...
