When I was 17, I gave birth to a beautiful baby boy, and because of the circumstances surrounding his birth, placed him for adoption with a wonderful family. I'm just afraid that he'll think I didn't love him because I wasn't able to keep him. I am unable to contact him (he'll be allowed to look for me if he wants once he graduates high school) to tell him how much I love him. I would like to know how some of you who were adopted feel about your birth mothers.by the way, he just turned 2 in February, and so far as I know, he will grow up knowing he's adopted. I've just been very depressed lately, and I miss him a lot! I just don't want to get to meet him and him be angry with me for not being there for him.

I am fine with it and understand the circumstances that determined why I was adopted (at birth). Every situation is very different and it will depend on him and how his parents approached it with him. Most adoptees understand why choices are made and many choose to search once they are of age.
