Open adoption, broken heart I knew it would be hard for my daughter's birth mother to give her up. I just didn't expect to feel so guilty for taking her.
  • Thank you, Salon

    As someone who is planning on starting the adoption process next year this wonderful, honest piece reminds me why my partner and I have never considered closed adoption. Even if that means that having a child placed with us might be harder-- we're Jewish lesbians-- but we know in our hearts that we don't want our future child(ren) to be cut off from their biological family.

    Thank you, Dawn and Salon, for such an excellent, heartfelt essay.
