Reply #133: it's the generalization. [View All]

It doesn't in any way change the fact that the way adoptions occur in this country disempowers birth parents.

Closed adoptions surely do, yes. My sister's ex husband was adopted in a closed way by fucked up folks. He's a mess. But that doesn't justify the generalization.

How about this - "Vegans are unhealthy." I don't doubt for a second that there are some vegans out there who aren't in the best of health. Does that justify the generalization?
