Not sure. I guess you could say that they would look at adoption as a more favorable option than someone with a bad experience. I am an adoptee who had a great experience though and had an unplanned pregnancy at 18 and did not go the adoption route. I guess there are too many other factors involved. |

Hmmm, this is an interesting question. I honestly don't know. I would assume that someone who would consider relinquishing would choose to do so regardless of whether they were adopted or not. I'm wondering if there are any stats on relinquishing mothers regarding how many were adoptees themselves.
Speaking as an adoptive mom, I would like my children to keep their children in our family, however, I would support any decision they made. |

I think it depends on the situation. I can only say that because I had a positive adoption experience, there was no question when my husband and I realized that to have a child we would have to adopt. not a problem with me. |

"...more likely to be expected..." ??? By whom?
This is a personal decision, not a social convention. Emily Post, Miss Manners, and Ann Landers don't address such things. It is nobody's business but your own.
Good luck to you. |
