The author wrote that she was adopted at five months old and grew up with parents she described as particularly loving and caring. She said she was happy not to have grown up with her biological mother but also felt angry at her. According to the author, a mother’s choice not to raise a child herself could cause emotional damage because the child loses, in her view, the most important person in his or her life. She emphasized that adopted children have diverse experiences and that attachment issues can have various causes. She found it unjust to dismiss those experiences as merely seeking attention or dissatisfaction. She also argued that children growing up with their biological parents could develop attachment issues. The author wrote that since her adoption in 1978, much knowledge had been gained about adoption and attachment, but the subject remained complex and more became known. She stated that international adoptions in the Netherlands had been banned for several years and that the Dutch government had offered apologies a few months earlier for its role in adoptions in the Netherlands, where babies had been taken from their mothers. According to her, the welfare of the child should always come first; she said she judged no one and only stood up for the child. #Adoptie #Hechting #Kinderen (translated)

Daniël van Deutekom wrote that children, according to him, were not for sale and had the right to the security of their mother. He called adoption a bitter necessity but argued that deliberately taking children away from their mother a few days after birth was malicious selfishness. Van Deutekom compared the practice to taking puppies away, noting that even they stayed with their mother for seven weeks—comparable to nine months for a baby, in his view. As a father, he claimed he could hardly have been home and involved more often, yet he believed his daughter primarily sought the security of her mother. He asserted that deliberately withholding that, just like in the case of abortion, was not about the health of the child but about the desires of more powerful people. He wrote that he was convinced this practice would eventually come to an end. #Kinderen #Adoptie #Moederliefde (translated)

Dr. Jan van de Beek wrote that migration made lower-income people poorer, among other things because they competed with others for social rental housing. According to him, the non-academically educated population had little say, and their needs were only politically met when they aligned with the wishes of academics. He argued that this was increasingly going wrong. #migratie #socialewoningen #ongelijkheid (translated)

Gerard had nog één grote wens: nog één keer ezels zien, voelen en dicht bij ze zijn. Dankzij Stichting Ambulance Wens werd die wens werkelijkheid. En eenmaal tussen de ezels kreeg hij meteen alle aandacht. Vooral van Liv, die eerst zijn kussen wilde hebben en daarna besloot dat ze de brancard ook zelf wel kon bedienen.

Dank aan Stichting Ambulance Wens voor het mogelijk maken hiervan. #LaVieEstBelle als een langgekoesterde wens ineens werkelijkheid wordt #WensenVerwezenlijken #BijzondereMomenten #StichtingAmbulanceWens
