So Sad….

I have this habit of typing in adoption and then asking Blogger to search all Blogs. It is interesting what comes up sometimes..the various Bloggers who do not have Adoptio Blogs per say, but have something to say about adoption.
So in doing this, I found a blog..more “political” one could say…that was written by an adoptee who spoke of having to find his natural mother. Nice story. So I commented for the pure reason that he is under the impression that reuinion should only happen under mutual consent agreements..aka both searching. I mean the poor woman looked for 17 years for him. He looked for 2 hours. If registries were better done if records were open, then he could have known that she was intersted alot sooner and according to him..he wishes he would have looked sooner.
ANd he said something about Moms “moving on”. Sorry, I am not one to let this misconceptions that are breed by the industry keep the records sealed. That’s what all these fights at capital bulidings are all about. Yeah, so I commented.
And opened a can of worms.
God I do hate it when poeple don’t “get it” at all. I am continually surprised when someone can read here and seem to be able to continue to view things with such a lack of compassion, and/or only see one aspect and dwell on that one negative thing they are focusing on. Truthfully, it hurts.
I feel angry and would lash out as such..so I will just walk away from the computer right now. Besides I have to go meet an woman and ohh at the paint colors I selected for her house and hold her hand and tell her to keep painting. I need something simple and brainless right now.
Where’s my lipstick?

Musings of the Lame was started in 2005 primarily as a simple blog recording the feelings of a birthmother as she struggled to understand how the act of relinquishing her first newborn so to adoption in 1987 continued to be a major force in her life. Built from the knowledge gained in the adoption community, it records the search for her son and the adoption reunion as it happened. Since then, it has grown as an adoption forum encompassing the complexity of the adoption industry, the fight to free her sons adoption records and the need for Adoptee Rights, and a growing community of other birthmothers, adoptive parents and adopted persons who are able to see that so much what we want to believe about adoption is wrong.

  1. Gah, anti-choice assholes…I have been a pro-choice activist since I was 16 and hate those people.

    Sorry you were spoken to that way.

  2. Reads like an angry male adoptee to me. So what his nmother searched/waited 17 years? When he felt like searching, the system served HIM just fine….end of story.

    Men IMO shouldn’t have too much to say about pregnancy/birth control/ abortion, etc. How can they relate?

  3. What a conservative shitpile you stepped into! Clearly a man, clearly hostile to women. THere’s no talking to that type. We can console ourselves that he probably has a miniscule penis. He’s probably short and bald, too

  4. Thank you..that gave me quite a chuckle.
    Yeah, this is one of those cases where I have to say..”Ok, not gonna get the perma bruise on my head from this brick wall”.
    Really, it was almost shocking..here I thought Nice story..threw him some props, quickly agreed to disagree..and BAM! I am an irresponsible baby killer….and have NO clue what his mother went through. For her sake I hope she is a lala denial mom…for he is not wanting to hear the truth at all and will be mean to her if she dares speak it.

  5. Hoo boy!
    Don’t even bother with this one. It’s not worth the energy.

  6. Yeah, bad find.

  7. ha ha HIM!!!! I saw his blog and went to have a wee peek and saw your comments and his comments and scuffled away as fast as I could. Did the word doofus come to mind???

  8. “I want the truth”

    “You Can’t Handle the TRUTH!”

  9. major doofus. major major doofus. i hope he gets over his issues. cuz he may not realize it, but he has, uh, just a few.

  10. Ladies, with all due respect, if you disagree with his views, you really need to come up with something other than insults and goofs that really have nothing to do with the subject matter. You are just adding fuel to his fire.
    If he’s not allowed to make generalizations, then neither are we… Just my opinion 😉

  11. Fair ‘nuf, Anonymous. I’ve tried, but it still don’t seem to be working.
