Look the good thing she did for her son and for herself. This is the true love! The mother who chose life for her son and the son who chose to meet her again 22 years later.

Trina, you are telling me that women who choose abortion are necessarily violent and will beat up their children? I don't think so. In fact, I know those women are the most loving ones and become wonderful mothers in the future and they just see themselves forced to do abortion due to emotional stress they are going through. Many make the decision in the name of love, believing they can't give their children a good life. Of course, many of them choose abortion for convenience, as statistics show (92% of them). Mental disorder mothers (violent, psycho, depressed) are not necessarily the abortion type of mothers.
Just one more thing, no life is in vain. Even for those who were raised by a psycho mother, life is not in vain!

The choice is up to the mother, not me.
I really don't see this as true love. A single mother made a mistake and got pregnant. Instead of getting an abortion, she dumped him on an adoption agency on the off chance that someone else might take responsibility for him. Oh, but she was gracious enough to leave the records open so he could look her up sometime. True love? Not in my book.

AMEN!! I am adopted myself have 2 adopted children. It is the greatest gift of love, to give a child life, even when it would be "more convenient" at the time to abort. And by the way for the one that said it may not have been love, due to the fact she left him at an adoption agency- this is why adoption has a bad name today- This boy was given life and years later found his birth mom- my son just found his too- and we cannot thank her enough for what she did.
I have had no desire to search for my birth mom- however that does not mean I have abandonment issues- So my question to the person who said this is bad- would it have been better if your friend's older brother had been aborted?

Her choice, not mine. Glad it turned out well for her, but I have a friend who's older brother is adopted, and he flat-out refuses to look for his birth parents because they abandoned him, even though his adoptive parents want him to look so he can at least have a family medical history.
It doesn't always end with a happy reunion and the kid feeling great about themselves. Sometimes abandonment issues linger long into adulthood. So it's really not anyone's decision but the pregnant woman's.

That was her choice. Now, let's hear some stories about women who have unwanted children and abuse them and end up beating them to death.
Edit:
That is not what I said at all. If that is what you infer, you should rethink.
I just think that often times people only choose to look at one side of an issue to sprinkle it the way they want it to be perceived.

The story was very sweet. I think the mother did what was right for her. It's great they had such a rewarding reunion.

Well, what if this mother never had sex in the first place? Using your argument, that would have been a bad decision, since this story never would have happened.

It's a nice story but it was always her choice. No one should be allowed to make such choices for others.

Sounds like it worked out for her, and good for them. This still doesn't mean women should not have the choice, though.

No. Abortion is the taking of a life. Nothing could be worse than taking the life of a human who is after all helpless in the womb.
