I've taken some heat for being so harsh towards Julia* in the not-quite-infamous story in February
Elle about being 30, a divorcing attorney, and getting pregnant with your husband just before you find out he is more than knee-deep into an affair with another woman who has no idea he is married. I was hard on poor "Julia," I admit. Reading the story was really triggering for me as this woman seemed to have the resources--family, friends, a husband in name--to keep her baby.
But she chose not to. And I said something that was well, quite brutal. I've been lambasted at
alt.adoption on Facebook by someone who is screaming about "her choice" and more sympathetic but questioning comments have been left at the previous
post for not being more understanding to a woman in a difficult situation that I certainly can understand.
