Adoption diaries
Oh my...I really shouldn't watch that show!
I'll be honest, some of the stories I find confusing, like a lady giving up her daughter because he's relationship with the father failed...yet she already has a son??? Or another woman who gave her son for adoption, then a year and a half layer gave her daughter to the same couple..whilst keeping another 3.
I just don't get it. Why keep some children and not the other? The show is painful to watch at the best of times but my heart bleeds for the children for when they are older and they find out their mum kept her other children and gave them up. I know everyone has different circumstances so I'm not judging someone who puts their child up for adoption, I just sometimes don't understand why they do it
it'd tear me apart and anyone who can look past that urge of love to keep their child and see that the child would be better off with someone else must be a very strong person indeed

It's heart wrenching to watch the ladies sit there with the baby and finally deciding they're ready to say goodbye, whilst the adoptive parents sit at the side waiting for the handover. Tense to say the least!
