Dumpster Babies




A couple of previous posts on dumpster babies at Why?: there are situations in which no medical records are available and will never be available - dumpster babies, other foundlings, some 'orphans', transnational adoptees who have made their way through a corrupt system and babies who are the 'gestational products' of anonymous donors, where no history is available. Some adoptees and ART people will always have to live with the knowledge of no knowledge being their lot. They will of course do it, because they have no choice and no alternative. For some adopters - ideal!! No biologicals, no records, no information and no strings. No problems! Well, not many, it remains to be seen and depends on what you call problems. Blank slates? No definitely not, however attractive a proposition that might be to daydream over. It ain't going to happen.

Happy Hunting Dumpster fans!
