Birthmother's Day?  One of the worst thing about being used as a baby-making machine must be the silly ways people try to "make up" for it.  Praying for you, being "nice" to you, giving you photos or trinkets will not make up for the loss of your child.

"Birthmother's Day" is among the worst ideas ever.  Perhaps the "birthmothers" who supposedly started it all meant to have a "Memorial Day for Moms who Lost Their Own Son or Daughter to Adoption". 

Their children were taken - and agencies profitted from the "adoption services" - services designed to get babies away from their mothers.  Referring to mothers as "birthmothers" makes it easier for prospective adopters than if people were saying to them: "Hey, wait!  This IS the baby's mom -  you are taking the mother away from this baby." 

Adoptresses insist they are the Real Mother.  Well, suppose that's true.  Then who is the Real Ancestor?  And is it a loving thing to separate a mother and her child just so you can play at being a "parent"?

I think a "Cindy Jordan Memorial Day" makes more sense than "Birthmothers Day".  Cindy Jordan, is one of probably thousands of moms who committed suicide after losing their  baby to adoption.  What a tragic thing.  Here in the United States we have millions of "Christians" just standing around encouraging this horrendous family separation.  We have all kinds of advertising to get babies, with phony "birthmoms" on radio telling how glad they are - but are they really glad that no one supported their motherhood?   Dear Birthmother - Thank you for OUR Baby?  Hey you!  That is HER baby, not YOURS even if you did pay for "it".

Well, you know the REAL moms are not glad - they're suffering from the loss of their son or daughter.

Few will speak out against even the most corrupt adoption attorneys.  It's pathetic to see women oppressed in this manner.
