Pregnancy Info HOME

it isnt hara__sing to me because she didnt threaten anyone on here and wasnt rude to anyone..why read it if it doesnt partain to you..actually emma i have read alot of women on here that think that you are hara__sing and abusive with your posts..but whatever if she isnt trying to threaten or hurt anyone what difference does it make where she posts

Oh gosh...to all the women I offended I am sorry. It is by networking with tact like I have been that I have been blessed with two girls that I have openly adopted. You do not need to go through agencies to adopt only either. There are private independent adoptions that are goverened through an attorney for a lifemother and an attorney for the adoptive couple. You have to be homestudy approved and certified. We are such a family. I do not have any stereotypes of women or women that are pregnant. I am simply putting our website out into the universe and if we are blessed by meeting someone who wishes to form an open adoption plan then that would be wonderful. We have been blessed with two wonderful families being added to ours through the miracle of adoption and I am very proud of this. Good luck with your pregnancies and like I said originally if anyone was interested in forming an adoption plan we would love to talk to them. http://www.adoptionprayer.com

I left a message on my forum for you...

Tinkerbell-Tink I think you are 100% crazy! I'm not sure why anyone would want you to adopt their child. You need to get off of this site!

slowpoke-it is not MY job to set up an adoption board for Tinkerbell-Tink. I believe that would be her job, which she did not do. Instead, she is choosing to selectively post messages on certain forums. Hence my posts. And, by the way, posting on teen pregnancy boards in addition to single women boards only corroborates my point, I believe.

KBC- i think it is quite rude for you to be calling her crazy because she wants to adopt a child. have eyou ever thought that maybe she cant have children and that is why is is wanting to adopt. how stupid can someone be to call someone crazy over something like this.MISCHELLY-why dont you all get a life and leave her alone. she has contacted the site and so have i and as you see they still havent set up an adoption board. put you energy into something else besides bashing her. what is wrong with people? if you are not wanting to give your child up for adoption then dont read this if it "offends" you.

Alright. I do not appreciate ad hominem attacts, nor do I find them appropriate or necessary. This discussion is done.

Sorry, that should read "attacks."

I agree with Emma. I said it in another post that she interrupted to advertise--whether you're advertising for babies or viagra, it's rude. Plus, if you're going to advertise anyways, I'd like to see some posted on the other pregnancy boards also--not just teens and singles. I don't think that people here are defensive. I know that in my own situation, I am already surrounded with the stigma that follows being single and pregnant and frankly, I don't care to read about this kind of stuff on a support board.

am- evidently your not looking for it anywhere else because it has been posted on the ttc board. noone on that board has bashed her for it and that is a board where women are trying to get pregnant or are having problems getting pregnant. she isnt limiting it to the teens or the ones who are single. if you dont want to read it then stop clicking on it. you are in control of what you read. she didnt make your hand guide your mo use to this thread and click on it. she just posted it in case there was someone thinking about adoption on here and if your not thats great but dont bash her because of it.

In the process of networking to form an adoption plan I am posting in all areas of this site off and on. I am not spamming the threads nor am I targeting a certain group of women. We are simple spreading the word that we wish to form an open adoption plan. This has worked for us twice before and we are the proud parents to two little girls through the miracle of adoption. I would say that their lifemothers would very much argue your comment about us being crazy. We are simply certified adoptive parents wishing to adopt independent of adoption agencies which tend to be anti-birthmothers. I think if you are single and pregnant you are a strong woman to raise a child and in no way are we stereotyping any of the single women on this site. We have posted in TTC, infertilty, here, teen pregnancy and many other areas of this site. We only post about once a week. Thank you slowpoke once again for the words of encouragement!

If someone can clue me in on how to start an adoption forum I would be very happy to start one. I am not sure of how to do it unless it is in one of the main topic threads. Thanks.

You know... It was mentioned somewhere that Tinkerbell dosn't post on the married thread... If there was one, I am sure she would, however, it is pretty rare that a married couple would give their baby up for adoption where as a single mother would be more likely. It's nothing to get offended about - if you got prego on purpose, power to you - if you didn't and consider it a blessing in disguse, power to you too. This post is for those women who are prego, don't want it and don't know what to do. If you don't fit in that catagory - don't click... Move on - be happy.... There is nothing to get offended about as she wasn't a__suming anything in THIS thread....

Tinkerbell, I am also an adoptive parent and I totally get where you are coming from. I guess that some people just don't get what adoption really means. If people only knew what we had to do to achieve the dream of a family, perhaps they wouldn't get so irritated over a simple post on a forum. Someone posted about the stigma of being a single parent... just look at how some of you have put a "stigma" on adoption and the desire for a child... so what she posted on here. It doesn't take a rocket scientist to figure out why, just reality. Some people have to stop living in their own little bubble and realize that there are other things going on in this world besides THEIR pregnancies. For the record, I know a lot of single mothers doing a great job raising their children, one of them happens to be my sister and another is my very best friend. I DON'T want their children, they want them and like I said, they ARE doing a great job! I have been blessed with a little boy who has only been with us for 3 months and is already the apple of my eye and hopefully his little brother will be joining us soon. They are both wards of the state in which we live. Our state also has over 6,000 children waiting to be adopted. I could go through the speech of "I hope I am not offending anyone, yada, yada, yada... " but I think that helping a woman who genuinely is looking for it or an innocent child find a loving home is more important to me than whether or not I have offended people that I don't even know. For some of you who think that eyes are on you because you are a single parent, try having your life history, your heart and your home literally put under a microscope so that a third party can decide if you are "deserving" enough to be a parent. And geez, that isn't even all of the adoption process that has to take place BEFORE you MIGHT be blessed. So, before you jump on another woman for a simple post, perhaps some of you should think about the plight she has already faced in her quest for a family, and how blessed you really are.

It is not a simple post on a forum..you want to adopt...stop looking for it on the net and get your a__ses to an angency and stop posting where the single moms and teens moms are

Tinkerbell....Im sure you have some good intentions but i checked out your site and its very creepy and so "perfect" ....Its almost as if your not even real.
