BUT......... I HAD studied Biology as all good high school students did, and as I remember it was the NORMAL method of the human to be conceived, grow, be nurtured by an umbilical cord attached to the "female parent" and in general be dependent in A NORMAL way upon the mother until such time that the baby is viable,i.e. LIVE outside of the mother rather than LIVE inside the mother. Parasites were covered under different sections of the text, and the differences were OBVIOUS. What books have you been reading, Silverstien???? What did you mean by >>>birth-parent<<??? Is it the mother who gives the baby up for adoption??? If that is what you mean then I have not MET any. But we did wait for over a year to adopt (un-necessarily as it later turned out) and our neighbors successfully adopted TWO children from seperate un-wed mothers. How is adoption a problem?????? The two children are happy, well-cared for, and loved. The couples on adoption lists aren't out encouraging out-of-wedlock births. Except for DESPERATE couples working the black market, there is no profit for any of the parties, execept the lawyers. And respectable lawyers don't make that much on the cases. More will be coming. By the way I'm glad to know that my article was posted successfully and read at least once. I wasn't sure how long the postings were active. Vince Marchionni V6M@PSUVM.BITNET
