In this episode of Choosing Adoption with host Donna Pope, birth mother Kaylee Anglesey challenges the misconception that birth mothers don't care enough about their children. At 19, she placed her daughter because she loved her so much that giving her the life she deserved mattered more than keeping her close. This perspective reveals adoption as an act of profound love rather than abandonment.

Truth and Genuine Connection

Kaylee approached her decision by demanding honesty, asking other birth mothers to share real experiences without sugar-coating the challenges. Her parents supported her with facts instead of pressure, allowing her to explore every option fully. The adoptive family she chose, the Courtneys, saw Kaylee as a complete person and built genuine friendship during the pregnancy.

Adoption Without Separation

When Posey arrived on Halloween, love surrounded everyone in the delivery room as they supported Kaylee through the most vulnerable moment. Her ongoing weekly visits and close relationship with the family demonstrate that adoption can add love to lives instead of redirecting them. Kaylee's courage to seek truth and demand authentic connection created a decision she's never questioned.
