Aunt who regrets putting up her baby for adoption 38 years ago pressures adopted niece to search for her birth parents, won't take no for an answer: 'Finding my birth parents won't make her son search for her'

Every adoptee has a different story. Some of them really resent the fact that they were raised apart from their birth parents, and others are perfectly happy and content with being adopted and wouldn't want it any other way. That is a two-way street because in order for a child to be adopted, their birth mother either chooses or is forced to give them up. Birth mothers of kids who later got adopted are similarly split on how they feel about it. Some might feel grateful and happy that they were able to give their baby to a couple who could give them a better life, while others deeply regret or resent having to give their child up, spending years trying to find them. The woman at the center of this story is part of the latter group. She deeply resents having given up her baby nearly 40 years ago and makes that her adopted niece's problem.
