I would be saying the same thing about a woman who changed her mind.

I would cry and then made sure I talked, talked and talked some more about it. This must be heart wrenching for you. I'm so sorry that happened.

I liked it and I'm not a super hero type of gal.

Oh now it's also because they are white? Awesome. Lets just tell men they can get women pregnant at will. They can be a schmuck and sign away their rights. No problem. You can change your mind later. You can also force a woman to put your name on the birth certificate. Woman have no real rights to their bodies. Nope men you're all awesome. Spread those wild oats!

It just seems odd to me that anyone would have a problem with men being in charge of informing themselves.

This is all very true and these are the realities of having children with people you don't really trust. Having a child isn't a game. It's not something to be taken lightly. People have to inform themselves. And when you say something you better mean it. And when you sign something you better be sure. Sometimes there aren't second chances.

Men should inform themselves on their rights and responsibilities on something as important as this issue. And when they don't they shouldn't have supporters saying "but he didn't know!"

I love this!

Awe that's so sweet! What an awesome and encouraging hubby you have! Enjoy her!

What does that mean? To tomato stake?

What is that? What are they gaining from these comments. I can't even understand what they are saying.

I don't know about you but I generally don't sign away rights to my children who I say I want to raise and love.

Of course he did. That poor misunderstood man.

I really don't understand this line of thinking. He DID sign away his rights. That is why he lost this case. Whether or not he tried to throw cash at her or toys or diapers is irrelevant. He DID sign away his rights. To say he was tricked or misunderstood just doesn't fly.Just because he had some Native American blood he thought he could con his way out of this. But I don't have to understand you and you don't have to understand me. It's been decided.And I think the person who made this decision had more facts than any of us did. Next time the bio dad gets someone pregnant he ought to read what he's signing.

Shame on her for refusing his marriage proposal. We all know woman have no choice in who they marry. And if they refuse a proposal then they deserve no support for the child.

It's was worse than child birth for me. I lost 15lbs because I couldn't eat for 11 days. The first day after wasn't all that bad it started going downhill after that. The pain was just something I wasn't prepared for. I couldn't function through the pain and meds to take care of my kids. BUT it was worth it. As for what helped...when the pain was manageable close to the end I ate alot of icepops.

You all are right. Baby V was snatched out of her loving fathers arms. The bio father supported the baby from day 1 and never wavered in his devotion to his newborn. He never signed away his rights. The only thing he signed was a military document. And we all know he was forced to join the military. And now Baby V will undoubtedly become a train wreck and karma will come and get the adoptive family. All hail the bio father. No dissenting opinions allowed here.

She is lucky to be loved by so many. The odds will only be stacked against her if people tell her for her whole life that she was bought and sold. This is so silly. Because I believe this experience does not have to destroy her then I'm ignorant about the details and I couldn't possibly be a mother. Sorry but I think we should spend more of our outrage on the children is foster care who have NO attachments and nobody to love them. Baby Vs mother gave her to a couple that clearly loves her. It's been decided and everyone can go on and find something else to be outraged about.

What?! I don't believe that saying she was bought and sold is an accurate description of what happened so therefore I couldn't possibly be a mother? Well heads up...you're wrong. I am a mother and I would die for my children. And that is the very reason I have NO sympathy for the bio dad. You don't give away your rights to your daughter and then get to change your mind in my eyes.

Isn't the change somewhat like a fast pass? You get the pass and come back later? The whole system is a joke. We went last year and I don't honestly believe we will ever go again. Waiting in line for 2 hours for one ride is ridiculous.

You don't know my experience. She wasn't bought and sold.

I apologize for not having a signature line with my childrens information. And I'm doubly apologetic for being new.

I totally agree! It always seems to be about controlling women.

So someone who doesn't have children wouldn't be allowed to have an opinion? Or it would be ok to have an opinion as long as they agreed with you.
