What do you think of Open Adoption?

Honestly I don't think you want my opinion about this.

I think its a good idea if both the adoptive parents, and the birth parents are ok with it. I think it would be nice for the adoptoion to be open and for the adopted child to know both the biological and adoptive parents simply for them to understand their true upbringing.

i think adoption sometimes can be fairly unfair considering im a person that cant seem to have a baby and feels that adoption is far tooo complicated

it is a good thing as the birth mother can be assured of her child's safety and happiness if they are in constant contact with the new family.

Okay, that one is tough. I think it should be the adoptions parents choice if they want the birth parents to continue to have a relationship with the child or not. Its nice though went it works out for the child to be able to know both types of parents.

I think it should be open to an extent. I was adopted through a closed adoption, and now I can never know who my mother is. I don't think that it's fair that I can't know where I came from and I can't get medical history.

I think in some situations that's a good thing both because the natural parents don't feel like they abandoned the child and the child won't have questions about why they were put up for adoption.

I myself am a birth mom and I chose the route of open adoption. Aside from the fact that I am now fighting my decision because the agency completely took advantage of us, I believe that open adoptions are a good thing- for every one involved, and if the parents looking to adopt dont want it that way- then they need to find an agency that does closed adoptions. I feel like it will be important for the child involved to get to know his or her real parents , siblings, grandparents, etc. They need to know from the start that there birthparents did not give them away, that they carefully chose the family that they were going to bless with him/her, and that they did it because they wanted a better life for their child. I do not like closed adoptions. To me, it is like punishing the birthmother for trying to give her baby the best life possible. And any adoptive parent should be thankful for the chance to raise the child as their own. Of course- It should be open to a certain extent, i do not believe that there should be visits until the child is of age to understand and specifically requests to meet the birthparents. That is the agreement i have come to with my daughters adoptive parents, and if i dont get her back- that way i know we will coninue emails, pictures, letters, etc, and when she wants to meet me and my husband she will have the option to. Let me know if you have any other questions regarding this matter.

Honestly I don't think you want my opinion about this.

I didn't even know that so this is new to me I will be honest I don't know if it is a good thing or bad thing about the Contact as it can confuse the Child as for the Mother choosing the Parents well I think that could be a good thing
