Abandonment is at the root of adoption. No child can be adopted unless his or her mother has abandoned him/her. Don't do it voluntarily- it is NOT a loving act to abandon your child, do NOT listen when anyone tells you otherwise! Your child will live her entire life believing you didn't want her. No reason is ever good enough to leave your child- keep him from being hurt by your abandonment of him!!!
Adoption as a "loving act" is a lie. A lie told to you in order to steal your child for sale to a childless couple.
I lost my son, Austin, to adoption in 1992. I love him and I miss him so very, very much.
I know he may never see this video, but perhaps an expectant mother might see it, and decide not to let go of her child. For her sake, and the sake of her unborn.
Take a stand to keep families intact. Keep children with their mothers. Stop the "adoption is a loving act" lie that the industry perpetuates in order to get children to sell.
Babies are not an INDUSTRY! (Except in the USA, where it is a multi billion dollar a year industry, that is)
Mothers, keep your children- being poor, being single, these things are temporary!
The agony of losing your child is forever... even if you reunite with them, if they forgive you for the abandonment they must live with for their entire life... they'll never be the baby you lost, ever again.
And you can never reclaim the songs you never got to sing, the tears you never got to wipe away, the firsts you never got to see.
Keep babies with their mothers. Keep families intact.
The Bible says, "The WICKED snatch fatherless children from their mother's breasts, and take a poor man's baby as a pledge before they will loan him any money or grain." Job 24:9
Adopting out your child just because you are young, poor, etc. IS NOT BIBLICAL!!! (I am not Christian, but it was Christians who sold me the whole "children need fathers, if you love him you'll give him to people who can afford him, etc." line)
If you love your child- YOU WILL KEEP HER! If you love your child, you WILL NOT sentence him to a lifetime of wondering why he was not good enough, not worthy enough, to be loved and raised BY HIS OWN MOTHER!
Adoption is anguish, because it begins, EVERY SINGLE TIME, with abandonment. That may not be a pretty fact- but it IS a fact.
Stop teaching our children that "if you love your child, you abandon her." Giving up your child for adoption is not in anyone's best interest except adopters and agencies. Not the child's. Not yours.
Even if you're young. Even if you're poor. Even if you're single. Because you won't always be young- you won't always be poor- and you likely won't always be single, either.
Your life circumstances are temporary. The pain of adoption loss is forever.
