Ok -- I just want to dedicate one small post to reclaim my blog's prohibitions in blogworld. I've had this blog for about two months now. Since I am an adoptee, when I signed up, adoption-related issues are what I sought to write about at least some of the time and will continue to.I will never moderate comments (unless I attract a real wayward fruit from the crazy train) because this is the internet, it's not supposed to be moderated and I'm not afraid of someone else with an opinion. After all, there are plenty of self-righteous crazies who have discovered the perks of blogging while buying children in bulk from third world countries at the same time.
But I just want to clarify because I've been getting some very annoying and not-very-original posts and personal emails from biased readers regarding my, so far, very brief posts about my views of my life as an adoptee and the whole business in general. These posts/emails are coming from people whom are not adopted themselves, but have adopted brothers, sisters, cousins, ex-girlfriends, dogs and neighbors.
I'm all for debate, in fact, I go looking for argumentative debate, it's a personal hobby of mine. But I prefer to argue with people who can form, you know, an actual thought in their head; a thought that's based on fact, research and maybe even personal experience if we're lucky.
So just a heads up to pro-adoption readers -- please, do continue to read my blog, I'd be very happy to hear your opinions and exactly how you formed those opinions... but if you base my life on what you know of your own adopted child's or your friend's aunt's daughter's adopted child, I'll have to kindly rip you a new one.
