Those who are anti-choice trot out adoption as if harboring a fetus for nine months and then handing it off to someone else is no big deal. No doubt for some people the decision to relinquish a child isn't hard (because there's always outliers). It may be that open adoption is easier than sealed adoptions for the birth parents. I don't know. But after reading this book, I know that ostracizing pregnant unmarried women, often punishing them for their pregnancy, and then stealing their babies from them is not a good thing to do.It's a heartbreaking work. For some women, knowing that there is a child out there, right now, is clearly a pain that never ends.Yeah, that business of expecting the women to enforce chastity? Historically, that's never worked out well.
