Some writers trade in hyperbolic clickbait headlines. I am not one of them. Nor will I ever be. That said, check out the following summation, relative to the headline of this article:
A Democrat “digital strategist” argues that adoption is more of a “trauma” for would-be parents than killing a potential adoptee before he or she is born. Crazy? Of course. But you already knew that. Read on.

“But perhaps more than that, I resent the suggestion by people like Justice Barrett that adoption is a simple solution, and I resent it on behalf of Maria, who found the choice she made traumatizing and still feels that pain, 44 years later.
Even when an adoption works out well, as it did in my case, it is still fraught.”
Would it assuage the author’s feelings if her birth mother Maria had simply aborted her instead of adopting her out? Does she not see what she is advocating?

This argument is the most ridiculous I have ever heard and I have worked with Pro-Life groups for many years. I wish these reporters would speak to those woman who opted for abortion and how their lives have been since the realization of what they have done hits them. Those are stories of genuine trauma. The act of abortion, even if they were coerced by a man or forced by a parent is profound. They can fins nothing in their actions that give them solace.
The mother who opts for adoption if she cannot care for her child might have times of guilt or remorse after her circumstances have changed, but they always know that in opting for life, the child was given a chance. Now, in many cases the birth mother can choose the adoptive family and have whatever contact with the adoptive family they both agree upon.
My husband, his sister, her two children, five first cousin's and several lifelong friends are all adopted children. My husband and his sister have very interesting stories because, for both of them, the birth mother's were known to their adoptive parents. Several (including my husband) have located their birth families. So far with good results. Three of the girls were contacted after the gene for Breast Cancer gene was discovered. Two of those had the gene and treatment averted full blown cancer. All of them were adopted into wonderful families who prayed for their birth mother's daily and celebrated their gift each birthday.
An adopted child isn't a gift to two people only. They are a gift to an entire family. Our niece and nephew have beautiful talented children. The cousin's have produced dozens of bright accomplished writer's, lawyer's, nurses, and actors.
A woman facing a crisis pregnancy, at least in my experience, always wants to opt for LIFE. Most are scared, alone, or cannot envision a way out. We worked with many women and girls who, after nine months, their circumstances changed and kept and raised their babies. I heard from one a few years ago who was 18 when she gave birth. Her daughter is now a pediatrician. How many lives will she effect?
Those who placed their babies, gave families new members. Those babies born after 1973 were so lucky to have birth mother's who valued life and went through all of the mental and physical rigors of a pregnancy to give them the life they deserved. Every adoptee doesn't always have a "great life" sadly, but, once conceived, they were loved enough to be born and place with a family who wanted them and the opportunity to be whatever they wanted to be.
No one "helps" a woman by offering abortion. It has nothing to do with women's "health."

I did not kill my second baby. It did not survive the first 8 weeks of gestation. The radiologist, who had a British accent, looked at the sonogram and said, "Sorry love, these things happen." And then he left the room. This was back in 1997. I'm still traumatized, and do the what ifs and the shoulddas.

Is it traumatizing for gay (Pete Buttigieg) people to adopt? Or just for hetero couples?
ACB has adopted children. She knows a thing or two about adoption.

We adopted our daughter when she was just 22 hours old. She is now 31 and the mother of two wonderful children. I cannot begin to imagine the evil that would want to see her chopped into pieces and dropped into a bag tagged as “medical waste”. Adopting her was the most amazing blessed and wonderful event of our lives. There was absolutely nothing traumatic about one nano second of the entire process.
She now has relationships with both of her birth parents, but we are “Mom and Dad”.

Ummmm! I was adopted and am glad to have enjoyed 69 years so far! Idiotically stupid logic! A liberal, in other words!

Yep, if Democraps ruled everything (as they wish) anyone they disagree with would be forced into a Late Term Abortion. I say it's the DemoNazi's that should be terminated by late term Abortions!

My ex-wife got pregnant by another man and we got divorced. She decided that she would abort the child. I begged her to not kill the child and go with adoption. She was horrified by the thought of adoption, but she couldn’t keep the child either because it would remind her of the man she intentionally had sex with to get pregnant.
She drove to another state to get a late term abortion.
She now says it was a miscarriage.
Excuse me if I consider my ex-wife and most women who get abortions to be monsters.

My wife and I adopted and we can't imagine how empty our lives would be if we hadn't. Anyone who would wish our son were aborted is just so awfully wrong.
