#i hate adoption

[anopenrecord]

His birth mom ‘desperately’ wants him back. But N.J. court says 1-year-old belongs with adoptive parents.

The couple who adopted "Baby J" say other adoptive parents should hear their story.

Just curious how you plan on explaining to your son that you fought tooth and nail to separate him from his own mother who desperately wanted him and left her buried in a mountain of debt.🤔 

CW: first parent erasure, parenting as class privilege, parenting as race privilege, coercive adoption, consent violations, adopter entitlement, state-sponsored kidnapping, general child and human rights violations, total fuckery, you’ll probably want to set shit on fire after reading this.

I didn't even have a name when I was born.

The name on hospital documents from when I was born said:

"Baby girl [last name blocked out]."

I'm not going to even start on my original birth certificate, something that I will NEVER see in my life, unless I want to spend a whole boatload of money. I didn't have a name for 3 months.

Talk about starting off life as a nobody.
