Should I give my baby up for adoption?

Some women who get pregnant that are unprepared to parent still choose to parent. One of the reasons they choose to parent unprepared is because they want someone to love them. They think that the baby will provide all the love they need, even when their back ground has lacked the love they needed from their parents, boyfriend, husband, etc.

What the expectant mother does not understand is that the baby cannot fill the void all of those other people have left. The baby is going to demand so much from them and depend on them explicitly. The baby is going to rely on them for food, shelter, safety, a nurturing environment, emotional support, stability, and much more.

In many situations the unprepared mother finds parenting more difficult than expected or too difficult just after a few weeks or a few months of trying to make a go of it. The unprepared mother finds her decision to parent; ... unsuccessful.

You cannot be unprepared and parent successfully.

It takes a mature person to look at all of the options they have with their unplanned pregnancy. A mature person makes a decision in the best interest of the child.

A birthparent is selfless and puts the needs of their baby first; when the birth mom finds out about all of the options, gets educated about the options, and then make an educated choice for their baby based on what they have learned, they are making an informed decision.

Making the best choice for your baby is a difficult path; but trying to parent unprepared will not provide a successful outcome and will also be extremely difficult...Please learn about your options and become educated about the path you are choosing for your baby.
