Some people take difficult decisions

I heard from a friend that a well-to-do couple wanted to give up their son for adoption.

Shocked? You see the child has autism, and the socialite mother has no time for him. Autism is a developmental disability that results in impairments to social interaction, communication, interests, imagination and activities.

On the one hand, my heart aches for all those parents who yearn for a baby and on the other hand, I feel sad for parents who somehow end up missing the magic of parenthood.

Thank you, all those mothers (and dads) who sacrifice their careers and their interests just to be a parent. You deserve a lot more praise than you get.
