The Definition of Adoption!

Welcome Fellow Intellectuals in the United States & Around the World!

Q U I C K   O B S E R V A T I O N #10

A D O P T I O N :

The adoption of children is a violent act, a political act of aggression toward a woman who has supposedly offended the sexual mores by committing the unforgivable act of not suppressing her sexuality, and therefore not keeping it for trading purposes through traditional marriage. The crime is a grave one, for she threatens the very fabric of our society. The penalty is severe. She is stripped of her child by a variety of subtle and not so subtle maneuvers and then brutally abandoned."

Joss Shawyer, Death By Adoption, Circada Press [ 1979 ]

Everyone who thinks Dictionary.com or Webster's Dictionary will print this true, and correct, definition of the revered institution of adoption [ family separation ], please raise your hands. Adoption is revered by everyone - but the people involved!

No hands?

    Whatever the idea is, all I can say that it is most often not good for the child. In the end, it is the child that is the loser. Perhaps adoption can give the child more opportunities to live a much better life but most often they still long for their real parents. I am expecting a dissertation about his topic.

    You have this blog that is all your own. Why not address the topics you continue to repeat on FMF here, and just link to them for those who want to follow your ideas? It would save space and time for those who prefer to keep to the topics on FMF. Other people's blogs are not therapy groups for you or anyone. Do your therapy writing here in your own space. Your fans will visit you here, and others will be relieved.

    Just as well this book is now a history book and no longer relevant to modern adoption or to what is happening in Australia in adoption.It is one of the basic texts which form the platform on which the unchanging ideas of adoption sit that have made life very difficult for adult adoptees to move forward in real life here in Aus.
