Marsha Kriss Green Other: I have friends who have adopted delightful older toddlers. unconditional unconditional Having a child , no matter the circumstances, is a BIG THING. although I am certain there are a diversity of oopinions on this matter within the Green party, I believe that since we stand for openess of government records, a goodly number would be of the same mind as me.

Having weighed the issues on both sides , I believe it is the responsibility of the creators to share information - maybe even vital medical information can be acquired in only this way.

The creators shouldn't just be able to leave a gaping hole in the person's life because they have moved on with theirs. This is called having responsible , even if the actions weren't through your own will . At the moment, only if the state of mind of the parent will lead to and imminent mental collapse ( as in the case of bringing back memories of being raped ) would I assess the situation through different eyes.

I would support a contact veto in those cases where the relationship has been harmful to the child in the past.

Actually I hadn't clarified my views until your survey. So you helped me. Thanks for thinking of me.
