It’s often hard to judge another person’s actions because the world is so seldom black and white. The woman in this article adopted 2 boys from Guatemala. She had a hard time bonding with them. So hard, that 6 years later she contacted the adoption agency she got the kids from to find them a new home.
The mama bear in me rages at her actions. Imagine, the only mother you’ve known for 6 years suddenly decides to give you up. How cruel and unfair. But, the woman states that she would avoid their hugs and would be stricter with them than she was with her other children. What child deserves to grow up without hugs? What child deserves to be treated worse than other children in the house?
So my opinion is split. On one hand, I think what she has done is cruel. On the other hand, perhaps now the children will have a shot at a loving home. Tell me what you think, Shak parents. Cruel and unusual? Or she did the right thing?
