[quote=sputnik;1788582]so i guess the only way a birth mother can guarantee she will remain anonymous is to be in a place with a safe haven law and abandon her child at a fire station or hospital or something.
that sucks.

and it is nothing like agreeing to marry your child off when he is a minor. he/she is simply having information withheld. and really, that's just the way it goes when you're a minor or a child - adults make decisions that will affect you all the time. that's life.[/quote]

That's exactly right! Nobody gets a child's consent to be born in the first place do they? Adults have more rights than kids for good reason: we also have more responsibilities.
