i think the goverment should do check ups more often and people need to stop wanting only babies...there are alot of children out there who need a loving family... and i think if the child at an older age wants to find out about thier family routes should have to go through a system where the goverment will give her a call and ask if she wants to be contacted by the child.. i don't think the child should have direct contact without permission.. because some mothers just cant handle the fact they gave up thier child and don't want contact.. i know it sounds horrid for the child being told no... but there are 2 people invloved  |

My grandmother is an adoptee, and her adoption was closed, and she cannot have her records open. And she is well over 30. This really is upsetting to people like me, who really dont care to much about reconecting with her "family", I just want to know where we come from. What nationality are we? What kind of medical history does this family have? Am I, or my children at risk for certain diseases? You know, stuff like that... My grandma had tried numerous times to have her records opened, but not a judge in town will do it, and we dont know why. I think "closed" adoptions should be banned. But, open adoptions, or atleast leaving some kind of papers stating important things about the family and history, that is great. There are alot of people out there who might not even exist if it werent for adoption. I am one of those people.  |

That's ridiculous!! What is this world coming to!!?? It's legal to murder your own fetus, but they don't want it to be legal to give your child away to a loving family!!?  |
| Date: 11/5/2002 9:15:00 AM From Authorid: 56296 The ones adopted should be allowed to get their files. I think it's unfair that they have so much stuff kept from them. The girl I fell for and am hoping to get back is adopted, and she's upset because she isn't allowed to see her realy birth family. I have a good friend who was adopted too, and his life is great. Why ban something that helps so many just because things go wrong? Things go wrong at school, does that mean we should ban school? |

I don't think these "anti-adoption", "anti-abortion" people have a life. They are always trying to cause some kind of trouble. Adoption is great....don't think these "loud mouth" hypocrites will have any effect on adoption at all. I remember last year, on one of the main streets in my town, there were a bunch of those "anti-abortion" hypocrites who had very young children out there with them, holding up very "graphic" pictures of aborted babies. I was SO ANGRY....my young children were staring at them, through the car window, with disturbed looks on their faces....  |

Id much rather hear of babies being adopted, rather than being killed.  |

I bet the same morons who are against adoption are also against abortion. Hey, what is supposed to become of the millions children who are abandoned, and given up? Warehouse them like pieces of furniture? Be like "Oliver"? And who is to pay for the housing, food, clothing and education of these children? This is downright silly. Every child has the birthright to be wanted and to have a family of their own. And those people who cannot have a child biologically should be able to adopt. Besides, just giving birth to a child does not make one a parent, or even a good parent at that. Now with the internet, and all sorts of organizations to help adoptees find biological families, it is much easier to get medical history and genetic info than ever before. Something tells me that this organization might have been started by someone who has had a bad experience or maybe watches too television ? There will always be adoption and the adoptable.....as it SHOULD be.  |

I agree with the idea that kids without parents have people without kids to take care of them. Its a mutual benefit,and has its advantages more that its disadvantages.But I disagree with the idea that adopted kids cant find thier real parents when they grow up.A child should always know if he is adopted or not.Also they do have a right to discover thier roots.  |

I do not think adoption should be abolished at all. I think the system should be changed somewhat, but not abolished. one of my best frends is adopted. Her birth mother was a 16 year old single teen. My friend was adopted by a couple who could not have children and who also knew her mom (they weren't complete strangers). I am very glad my friend was adopted becasue she probably has a much better life now than she would w/ her birht mother. Also she and her birth mother keep in touch and have seen each other a couple times.  |

I don't think that adoption should be abolished. I'm just wondering why folks are lumping anti-abortionists in with these people? I firmly believe that I am not a moron, a "loud mouth" hypocrite, and I do "have a life". I can't believe that an adoption debate turned into an anti-abortion bashing session. I am pro-life and proud to be and I consider myself a fairly intelligent person. I would never call someone names just because they chose an opposing viewpoint...and this isn't even an abortion debate! I believe adoption is a wonderful thing, and couldn't imagine taking that hope away from the millions of children who are in such need of a loving home.  |

so children should be denied the possibility of having families that love them and care for them? And what's the alternative? Should they be bounced around in state run orphanages or foster homes until adulthood, never having a stable place to call home nor a long-lasting bond with anyone? And just because a system is flawed, does that justify abolishinng it completely? For instance,since there is demonstrable evidence of corruption in certain police departments, should we do away with law enforcement? totally absurd.  |

oh this beats all: so I do some research over the internet and come up with a whole bunch of sites stating that natural parents are always superior to adoptive parents. It doesn't take much life experience to see through that bunch of flotsam. We've all witnessed at least one example of "natural" parents who were completely awful (take that lady in the news, for instance,who neglected and murdered her children). The best parent is a loving one who is responsible and capable of taking care of the child's needs. I don't think young women should be pressured into foaling infants for childless couples. But I do think that there are many young women who don't have the maturity, self-sufficiency (nor the will) to raise a child and that adoption is a compassionate option in these cases. |

I am an adoptee. Adopted at the age of 3 days old. My parents are those who raised me. Granted, I still have every respect for my bioligical mother and father, who I know had to make the most difficult decision in their lives to give me up, but I know that they did so because they love me. (My adoption was through Genisis...not sure if it's still through that name or not, but its a Christian non-profit organization that will house the mothers, keep them in school if necessary, pay medical bills, etc.). I was diagnosed with depression in 1998, and had several health problems as a teen. (I'm 25 now). My parents went to the courts to see if they could obtain the medical records sheet... my birth mother did not fill one out. Even if I were to have my records opened, I could not obtain any information. And at this point, I do not want any contact with my biological family. Yes, a part of me will always wonder about them... a part of me will always care for them. But I was blessed with a family that loves me, and I belong here, despite not being blood related. Granted, I know there are shady adoption agencies, but I do not think that all adoptions should suffer because of a few bad ones. I think that the screening process should be tougher... and I don't think that one's 'celebrity' status should make it easier to get a child, either. Nor should one be desrimitated if they are a single parent, etc. If it's going to be equal, then let it be equal... Also, they need to keep pushing the issue of advocating adoptions of older children as well, who also are much in need of homes... not just the babies. Abolishing adoption would not be a choice. In my opinion, it would be a death sentence.  |
