Damaged: The Heartbreaking True Story of a Forgotten… par Cathy Glass
Oh my god, I can't begin to say how I hate this book and "hate myself" for reading it even more. The poor kid, those parents... HER MONSTER OF A PARENTS... I'm a mom and I can't for the love of god, can't understand how a mother would even take part at damaging her own daughter... I... god I'm so mad.
Tragic. Ugh. Those pitiful kids. This would have been a five star read for me. The reason I rated it four instead is because of Cathy. I like Cathy, and all her books, but I didn't like how she didn't understand the reason (or refused to understand) the first couple's problem. They were not unreasonable. Their concern about Darcy-May being a product of an incest rape is totally valid. On top of that, they were not told of the secret and only knew about it on the day of the meeting.
Every kid deserves a happy home and loving parents, but what the couple did was save themselves and Darcy-May from the heartache that may come later. Sure, kids will not be like they're biological parents but, it there is a possibility and that will be a chance to take. Also Darcy-May deserved someone who will take the risk, which is again not the first couple's fault. Yes, I'm repeating myself, but I can't help it. This part disappointed me the most about the book.… (plus d'informations)

Cathy Glass writes some really enjoyable and informative books. This is another good one. I always appreciate her insight. A very engaging writer. It is more about the mother of the Innocent Baby than the baby itself.
Although this book covers an international adoption, it had so many similarities to my own experience I was shaken up reading it.
