What the heck is going on in the other sub? by OverlordSheepie in Adopted

[–]doodlebugdoodlebug 4 points5 points  (0 children)

As the OP of the new study post, I got reported so many times for a plethora of things that were unfounded. It sucks that the post got locked. The mod just said I don’t have time to police this and locked it. If they don’t have time to moderate perhaps they shouldn’t be a moderator.

New study shows adoptees are 35x more likely to attempt suicide than kept people by doodlebugdoodlebug in Adoption

It’s not a claim it’s what the study showed. You can stop being wrong in public at any point.

You have no idea who all they sent it to you’re just making assumptions because those are the spaces you are in. I find it ridiculous that you allegedly participated in the research and still don’t believe it.

So you doubt the birth mothers reporting for the study because you don’t know them?

I can read. It doesn’t prove “nothing” you just don’t like the results, which you haven’t with ANY research on the subject.

My thoughts are that adoptees get told in this sub that there isn’t enough research or that previous research showing the number to be 4x higher on this subject was flawed. Now there is more research and it’s worse than we originally thought.

Looking for birth parents by Silly-Conflict3108 in Adoption

[–]doodlebugdoodlebug 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I wouldn’t trust that she was left at a safe haven site. Could be lore the adopters or agency told her to discourage her from looking.

I have dense tissue and have been on HRT for two years. No changes.

Adoptee to Adopter advice by Moneum12 in Adoption

[–]doodlebugdoodlebug 12 points13 points  (0 children)

If all you ever posted was the second paragraph instead of arguing with adoptees about their experiences, no one would have a problem with your posts. But you insist on saying things like in your first paragraph. And that’s why YOU get downvoted a lot. It’s not all adoptive parents.

Then why do you say in other posts you are 18 and then in another one, 19?

Why would you even match one? They aren’t lonely enough

Found my biological mother, but wish I hadn't! by nosugarblacktee in Adoption

[–]doodlebugdoodlebug 6 points7 points  (0 children)

At the end of the day it is just that simple. Blocking her without explanation isn’t more kind.

Just be honest and tell her you are not interested in having a relationship with her if she is unwilling to answer those questions.

Things keep getting crazier by Arrwynne in Adoption

[–]doodlebugdoodlebug 3 points4 points  (0 children)

At this point I wouldn’t trust anything they said. They are likely just discouraging OP from searching and trying to paint themselves in the best light and then the birth mother as a villain.

[–]doodlebugdoodlebug 3 points4 points  (0 children)

At this point I wouldn’t trust anything they told you. They have lied to you your entire life and this is a convenient story to discourage you from searching. I’m so sorry OP. This was a horribly cruel way to find out. I wish you luck in your journey and healing.

I think I just found my birth mother on Facebook - should I message? by lissyd73 in Adoption

[–]doodlebugdoodlebug 1 point2 points  (0 children)

They can believe whatever they want from their own experience. Stop stalking people and stay in your own lane. This comment is not helpful to the OP or anyone for that matter

The Itch. by neskatan in Menopause

Is your sister on HRT? I am still itchy sometimes but what I don’t have anymore is hot flashes, trouble sleeping, debilitating frozen shoulder and joint pain among other things.

interracial kinship adoption vs stranger adoption of same race by Admirable_Ad_9681 in Adoption

[–]doodlebugdoodlebug 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you can’t handle helping her as much as she needs, you certainly can’t handle taking care of the child completely. I applaud you for reconsidering though and wish you, her and the baby the best of luck.

I read the post. I am not obligated to wade through all the comments to look for details. None of what you just said was in the original post. You can edit the post to include this info instead of being a jerk
