Signs of an Adoption Scam
I’ll be honest and admit that I’ve been hesitant about writing this post. I certainly don’t want to confuse people or lead them to believe that I believe all birth mothers are scam artists or that birth mothers are terrible people. This could not be FURTHER from the truth! I am in awe of the …
