Adoption means abortion just isn't necessary, SCOTUS claims: That's even worse than it sounds

My kids have as much relationship with the birth mothers, and in one case the birth father, as is good for the families.

As is good for the families. If genetics and family history weren't important, there'd be no market for genealogy and 23 and me. Surrogacy is a separate issue as well. Protecting a child from harm, then telling that same child that merely knowing their birth mother's name is harmful, that their own family members = harm is, well, harmful. Can everyone's birth parents be perfectly middle class librarians teachers golf coaches and postal workers? The only real harm was separating me from my mother at birth, then asking me and everyone else * to pretend it never happened* is a recipe for deep psychological trauma.

Your grandchildren can take for granted the luxury of the truth. It's their truth, and it happened to them.

Open adoption is a very different beast from coerced adoption practices pre-Roe and through the 70s until white women either aborted or kept their babies. The assumption that all mothers who surrender are damaged or harmful is breathtaking.
