Is there a dedicated bike path, e.g. Sydney Harbour Bridge has a fully fenced bike path separated from traffic by a rail corridor. BTW sounds like a beautiful ride.

Overall very well made points. It does sidestep the inherent damage to adoptees, especially newborns, of separation trauma. For example, trauma is attributed to prenatal substance abuse amongst other "unfit mother" scenarios beloved of adoption agents: quoted text following.

Hugs from here. It must be difficult dealing with the dawning realisations that come from this travesty and maintain a relationship with them. More power to you.

Thank you. Good to know. I hope people born before that understand that it was not always the case. Does the father have to notarised or make a declaration about that?
