What Makes a Mother

This blog is written by a woman forced to surrender two of her children to adoption. She speaks out against the adoption business and has some good points about the absolute desperation of women to have children at any cost. As someone who has felt an uncontrollable biological urge to bear children I certainly sympathize with the pain of not being able to conceive. But we don't often think about the pain of the mother giving up her child, in some cases and countries she is not given a choice, so I think the airing of another view is helpful and healthy.
