Ok I decided to use this post to express some ideas for everyone that posts and reads the posts. Please remember that everyone here is at a different stage of life. Also remember that as the case was with Wanda, there are many different situations with life that effect us each at different times. We are here to help each other, not be critical.

I have spent alot of time thinking about this and I am very sorry that Wanda had to relive that experence. Believe me, I know how it can hurt to relive something painful, I lost a baby at age 19, and did not become pregnant again until I was 26. I still can remember when that child should have been born. Please be aware that you can hurt people by being critical or by not thinking that while they may have done something that you don't agree with, they may have had very good reason to do it.

Without going into details there are many people who have had negative experences with adoption. So remember please be kind and don't be quick to judge or critise.
