A friend of mine adopted a child from a poor family. The mother gave the child away without even looking at him. It was too harsh for her to handle. She could not bear to see it happen.
The family is impoverished with five kids and has no choice but to give away the child. The child is now in better condition and doesn't know who his birth mother is. I sometimes wonder if he needs to know or if we should let him go through life just the way it is right now. I don't know the answer, to be honest. Your story is powerful, and what you went through is very tough. You are strong, my friend. Very strong.
