Even though these boxes have been available for decades, I wonder how many young women and men are even aware of it.

Pretty much every young person knows about adoption and yet many still get abortions.

Many say that they can't bare the thought of living their lives wondering what has happened to the baby they gave up.

Of course if they kill their baby they know exactly what has happened to the child they killed.

Why not wonder about living with that knowledge?

My husband is one of those, born in 1949, whose 16 year old mother in rural Ohio gave him up and Catholic Charities adopted him out at 11 months old. His adoptive parents were good people and good parents.

How sad that people would kill their baby so it can avoid a hypothetical bad life that statistically is unlikely to happen.

As an aside, those nuns took very good care of him with lots of attention because there are no attachment issues with this man at all. He is a wonderful loving big personality guy and I wish I could meet his birth mother (who if alive would be 92) and just worship and thank her for allowing him to have his life.
