This will make your blood boil

The Picture said: "So it hurts to be infertile and have to hear about other women's pregnancies?
Try being a "birth mother" and having to hear about someone else raising your child."

The Comment by a random uneducated bitter who has some issues of her own "woman": " I think infertile women get off to this, once they get their hands on another's infant. It makes them feel validated. I think it makes them pathetic for expecting someone else to pay for the rest of their lives. I truly believe some of these women get off to the anguish of the natural mother. Sick, despicable human beings."

What I have to say may surprise some people. I was furious annoyed upset and just disgusted. I then realized nothing could be said to this kind of person it would be a waste of my energy. Someone who speaks this way is lacking the education and understanding of what someone goes through  in the infertility journey.  I will always come across people who are supportive and understanding even if they haven't walked a mile in my shoes, and then I will come across someone like this. They are out there maybe bitter about a situation from their past which leads them to say such things. I honestly feel sorry for someone like this.

Birthparents play a very important role. I do not minimize them or forget they exist. I admire their ability to say I love my child so much, and I understand that I can't give them the life they deserve. I will be selfless and put them before myself and give them a better chance. That's amazing, and something I will be so thankful for one day. Here's a great quote....
  “giving up a child is not a selfish act, but rather it is a courageous act of love, on hopes to give their child a better life than what [the parents] thought they could provide.”

We should try to bring each other up not tear each other down. It saddens me that someone would say or think what that random woman did but they do exist as must as I try to think they don't. I would take someone like this on maybe in real life face to face not in the internet world. Sometimes people use the internet to hide behind their words. I doubt she would say anything like this in a public setting. I would take the opportunity to educate her. Of course I have a feeling I'd be better off applying my energy to more positive worthy things. Well you get the drift.
