There is loss and it's not only the birth parents' loss, but the adoptees' loss, and often the loss of the adoptive parents as well, who cannot have biological children.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08492649968147186399noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5062079671998002401.post-47888714565048278262009-11-07T23:37:12.669+02:002009-11-07T23:37:12.669+02:00Hevel,

AND THERE IS LOSS!<br />As adoptive parents we had better realize that and understand that our children have suffered.<br /><br />I feel a blog post coming on.Christie Mhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09738612207150868577noreply@blogger.com
