Im not sure how a mother could give up her child. I think its really selfish, how dare someone bring a child into this world then have absolutely no means to take care of it, then just give it away, here you take the kid i made and you take care of it, cause im either to high or to broke to.
I got pregnant at a young age, and everyone tried to tell me because im young i just need to give the baby up, give it away. I thought no way! This is my child, i made it i take responsibility for it. I think if it was harder to just give up your baby whenever you wanted, maybe stupid people would stop reproducing

I'm saying sometimes getting pregnant is an accident and sometimes adoption is better for a child and for some if that wasn't an option they'd go for abortion.
What a fantastic post Nod! I agree that adoption can be a very selfish act by a Birthmother. It's an easy escape from the consequences of her actions.
In a Christian society, the two youths responsible for this behavior would be required to be married and raise the child with help from their families. Regardless, even now-a-days in many countries, there are many options for young parents who don't have help from family or from the male responsible for the pregnancy.
I have to applaud your character Nod! You decided to do the right thing, regardless of how difficult it was for you!
You also confirm my testimony in this thread; that Birthmothers are manipulated into giving up their children by society. They are lied to and told that adoption is the best option, and are pressured and made to feel selfish for keeping the child.
God bless you Nod!

I have a friend, shes only 23, who is about to give birth. her boyfriend was unfaithful and too immature, he decided to move to another country leaving her all alone. She's been having doubts about keeping the kid because shes worried she wont be able to love him/her when it arrives. Now whats wrong with that?
Why would you want to keep a child if you KNOW you can't look after it, or love unconditionally. If you can't do that, then he best thing to do is give it p to someone who can love it and look after it. It makes no sense to bring up a child in an unloving broken home.

There is nothing wrong with adoption. I had a boyfriend who was adopted by a loving, Christian family because his mother was a teenage girl that got pregnant while hooked on heroin. The result of him being adopted was that he was taken out of a broken home where he most likely would have grew up with substance abuse and possibly other abuses. Is that better then growing up with Christ being focus? Or do you think drugs being the focus would have been better? Keep your statistics, I know a real breathing man who benefited from a loving family reaching out and calling him "son".

What makes you think people adopt because they need healing or are unable to provide for their child?
There are a zillion reasons why one would choose to put their child up for adoption and equally as many reasons why one perfectly healthy, fully equipped woman may choose to adopt a child.
Personally, I have a much deeper desire to ADOPT a child then to have a child of my own. Now I know people are going to throw daggers at me, there's nothing you can say I haven't heard. I've even been told because we are choosing NOT to have children of our own, that we are intentionally sinning, which is complete rubbish of course. We don't have children, nor do we have any plans to have children in the near future. I LOVE kids, and have great compassion for those who are unloved/neglected etc...but we have our own reasons for making such a choice...just as those birthmothers have their reasons for adopting out their child. None of us should judge.
My point is this:
Be very careful of the claims you make. In regards to topics like this, everyone is entitled to their own opinion, but unless you can support your thoughts with SCRIPTURAL evidence, then think before posting!
