[QUOTE="TerryJ2, post: 253495, member: 3419"] Hmm. CJ is going to be in for a disappointment. Open adoption mean the potential for access, but it does not mean an extended family situation. Plus, she will move on with her life, and once the novelty is over, she will not want as much contact. She will surprise herself. Additionally, the adoption papers will be changed to indicate that the actual parents are the adoptive parents. I don't understand why, but I saved both copies of ours, and glued the original underneath so you can lift up the new one and see both. The adoptive parents can change the baby's name, move out of state, change religions, etc. You cannot control what other people do. If your daughter meets potential couples, she needs to ask them how much contact they are comfortable with, what sorts of hobbies they have, how they plan to discipline, and other related questions. The bmoms we interviewed with asked us our political views, religious view, and what we ate. They also asked us our name choices, which was very important to them. A good way to talk to the potential dads is to talk money. "If you do not want to be saddled with-bills for the rest of your life, sign this release." Most guys sign with-the speed of light. :) [/QUOTE]
