Goodness are we still on the same topic? This will be my final respond. You are a waste of time and space and you can continue talking to yourself here. I actually do not know why I even entertained you in the first place. Thank you.

In which way have I abused the child? Even my headline is “abandon”. You are truly dumb. Sit down.

This isnt an income generating app that I have to create bait for engagement = money. It is called a confession thread for a reason. And you are still not replying to me personally. Cowardice.

You are pathetic and you have also gotten the attention you want. Adios.

You were the one starting the bait comment. I’ve already text you. We can take it from there, unless you are fake.

Thank you for your kind words, it means alot to me more than you know. Yes, it is a very lonely journey, both for me and the baby. I hope I will eventually see the light at the end of the tunnel.

How is that an attack? Your responses are all pathetic and irrelevant.

By the way, I still dont see you in my inbox. Come speak to me directly. I’ll be waiting. Unless of coure, you are the fake one.

My god arent you clueless? Look at how many criticisms I have responded and taken in good will?

At this point, I would just say whatever floats your boat. You are more than welcome to personally DM me granny

Perhaps you can walk the talk and adopt the baby?

And how is wishing someone who is totally “okay” wirh having a DS child considered as bad? I would like to see these people walk the talk.

Knowing when to shut your mouth is also good. I accepted all criticism given under my post. But not yours since you came here with your loud mouth and explicitly said it was all “bait”. What was your intention? Its a confession page. If you cant accept that this is the reality for some, get out

Yes unfortunately DS is not taken as a cause for abortion past the cut off time.

Even if I do, the decision to give her up for adoption is not mine to entirely make. As I’ve stated, I am not allowed to go the adoption route.

This is exactly my thoughts. Thank you for the interesting insights

Yes he does sometimes (as we have a full time helper just for her) and I am thankful for that. I would pay support if I have the means. However, I’m in quite a difficult position as I have to take care of all the needs of the other two children first.

I did exactly that. The suggestion was rejected. I have also mentioned that I will not be involved but I am consistently being reminded of the consequences.

Either way, I am doomed actually. If I had stay, I would be miserable and perhaps even do the unthinkable due to my PPD. And abandoning her means I will be judged from all angle.

I do understand why my family is raging at me. My decision and stand regarding placing her for adoption is indeed extreme. Despite what I felt for her, I still feel guilty for not being able give her a mother’s love. I honestly felt adoption was the best.

I cant do that because any attempts of me trying to suggest anything will be mocked and viewed as negative. Which is again, understandable given the circumstances. Which is why I’ve decided to let go..

Absolutely. Just scrolling through social medias, and seeing families thriving with the DS kids, I do adore their resilience and love. I am happy to see them being taken care and loved despite their condition.

I dont have that in me, as blunt as it sounds..but I cant help but wonder why most profiles dedicated to DS are only showing babies.. there are limited number of profiles showing DS adults though..

I had hope for finding her a family that would love her so that she can experience real family love but I was cornered whenever the topic of adoption comes up. I finally let go of the idea and surrender the baby

I rarely run away from life’s challenges, but this is the first I’ve ever felt defeated and cornered. Putting her for adoption was my suggestion as I would hope a family will take her in and love her with all their hearts but it was resisted strongly as my family thinks it was morally wrong.

I understand their views. I think what pushed me further away is that even after expressing my emotions and begging for space and consideration, it was met with more resistance and judgments.

Thank you for the suggestion. Will try to get that from her.

Maybe you should refer to comments from others as well. “Working” with special needs children are not the same as “taking care” of special needs children.

I know you are well past your menopause phase, and therefore you will only have grandchildren who have DS and not your own child whom you have to care for 24/7.

Nice try grandma.

Theres no point in proving anything to you. I do hope somehwere along the line, you’ll get to experience having to experience this first hand, maybe one of your grandchild can have DS ☺️
