Usually when you talk about a "Flock" of something it is usually geese. Or some relative of the bird family. However the birth mom of my adopted children. Has not given birth by the child she has given birth by the "Flock."

At the present date there are 17 children that this woman has given birth too. There are 15 out of the 17 children still living and all are in state custody.

Each child she has damaged in different ways. Either through her drug and alcohol habits or her sexual promiscuity.

When I first met her she was 8 months pregnant and ready to give birth again. She was so incoherent that the family visit was nothing but her spaced out and the kids running out of control around her.

In the parking lot she called to me, "Hey you....is that one there a migit?" I was devastated for her young daughter who heard what her mother had asked.
She could not recall her child's name. Her only question being if the child was or was not a "Migit."

I am great full to God that I have been blessed to adopt my children. But there have been times when I sincerely prayed that my children had a better birth mom. At least one who could recall their name or birthday.

For women like this. Who only bring children into this world and inflict emotional, physical and sexual damage upon them. I wish we had responsible birth control laws.

As my children have grown older. They have sought out and met their birth parents. Both the birth mom and dad have serious issues with alcohol and drugs still present in their life.

However at least the birth father related to the kids his great loss when they were taken and he had an old photo of some of the kids he had kept in his pocket for 9 years.

Recently my oldest daughter told me she has been paranoid around new people. Afraid that someone will hurt them the way her mother allowed her to be violated. We decided it was time for her to seek some therapy. To help her relax and be secure that she is doing a wonderful job with her two sons.

She told me she hated her birth mom for making her feel this way. Because no matter what she does it seems that the birth mom still has an affect on her
present life.

We try and love the bad feelings away and think of the wonderful years to come as her boys grow older.
However for the first time my daughter who said she would never believe in birth control at one time. Now says "Birth Moms like mine need responsible birth control."

No child should be born into this world and allowed to suffer harm. If there is a pattern of loss such as this ...something should be done. What do you think? Is my daughter right? Should her mother not be allowed to keep having children?
