I am looking for my birthparents. I was born 12/23/1984 in Rochester, NY at RGH weighing 7lbs. I was given the name Mary Theresa. My birthmother gave me a letter saying I had my maternal grandma’s blue eyes (sorry they changed to brown mom), my dad’s cleft, and her small ears. My bio parents were 21. My dad was in college. My mom was in college studying special ed. He was Italian and my mom was Irish, German, and French (Americans). She is 5ft 5. He is 5ft 9. She’s Catholic. Please contact me!!

OMG Balling. I have been searching for my birth parents since the moment I could. I hope they feel the same way and want to find me but I doubt it. I have looked everywhere but don’t have any identifying info. I am so happy you found each other, it gives me hope.

@iLoveCrissAngel01 Your birth mom was sick. Drug addiction is a nasty, nasty thing that just rips families apart. I am sorry she was not strong enough to get clean. I am sorry she made such horrible choices leaving you and your siblings to feel the repurcusions of her bad choices. Somewhere in your heart you must know there was a point in her life when she was a beautiful person. Pray that she is there again now. Do you know how to search for your birthfamily (if old enough)?

this made me cry. a lot. i had a baby when i was 14 and gave him up for adoption. i am still in contact with his parents. i was also adopted myself, and i remember the first letter i wrote to him. it was a lot like that. and the letter my birthmom wrote me was also a lot like that. adoptees should know that their birth moms love them more than anyone could. and its not strangers raising you if you were adopted. so many people dont understand adoption.

@enchantedwood im really sorry, i never knew, ive never had kids, im 14 so i guess its would be a bit..wrong. when i was born, my mum abused me, then left me in the streets to die, so i guess its just my opinion and i guess it always will be..nobody came forward for me, they got the chance but nobody came forward. nobody cared about me, they left me with heart problemswhich i still suffer from, i always wonder if my parents are out there somewhere..i doubt they care if they are..

Most unmarried mothers in the 1960’s & 70’s had absolutely no support, were often drugged to the gills by hospital staff, coerced by social workers and made to believe they had nothing to offer their babies. I was 17and powerless against the wave of scorn and brainwashing I was subjected to, especially as they drugged me in the hospital. I was made to believe if I loved my child I would stop being so selfish wanting to keep her, and sign the adoption papers and so let her have a better life.

if she did love you then she wouldnt have left you. i’d rather my parents helped me bring up my child, than some random person i dont even know….

Hard for me to understand this. My grandmother lost her husband at 32 and she already had 5 little girls (the youngest was 2 yrs old). She didn’t have any family to help her because she was orphan. She kept her children, worked hard cooking (she was the best) for others until she got to open a small cafe, bought a house and sent all the children to school (two teachers, two secretaries, one accountant). She didn’t remarry…
