"Lessons I've Learned-Chapter One"

Getting pregnant and having a child at age 16 is not the "right" time in anyones life.

For what it is worth, my wife was adopted as a two year old. She is now in her late 70's. She appreciates the love her adoptive parents gave her. It has always hurt her that she was given up for adoption. According to the records, two of her siblings were given up at the same time. The mother later on, got two of them back. There were five children and the father died. The mother was desperate and did what she believed she had to do. Whether or not the mother ever tried to get her back, my wife doesn't know, but it has always been the root of her hurt that in her mind, she was not wanted and given away. That may give you some insight into what your daughter felt like. Nearly all you have written, as I have told you before, shows that you are to self centered. Healing comes with thinking not of yourself, but in giving of yourself with no strings attached and no expectations.
