How Many Pregnant Woman Are Asked to Give Their Baby up for Adoption without Seeking Adoption Info?

There is some information given over on the Adoption Questions section suggesting that Young Pregnant Women are attacked by baby stealing Adoption Agencies and attacked by People wanting to Adopt their baby.

My Question is to those who might be Young and Pregnant who have NOT even considered Adoption--Have you been Solicited here or in real life by Adoption Businesses or Interested Adoptive Parents to give them your baby?

Do you know what a "Dear Birth Mother" Letter is?

Do people email you telling you they want your baby--even if you have never mentioned Adoption as one of the choices you might make?

For those pregnant whom have never had contact with an Adoption Professional--or people interested in Adopting your baby do you Feel like you are being Solicited to place a baby for adoption?

Just interested if the General Public of young mothers are attacked by the evil Adoption People---or Not?

Update 2:

If you feel that you cannot post an answer here in public will you please just email me and let me know that you have been asked to place your baby for adoption... I will Not tell who you are--I just would like to know if this REALLY is a problem in 2008?

    I think some people are desperate and it is sad what they will do money. I agree if someone wants to adopt their child out, they really should do research or choose a family they KNOW will take care of their child. I don't like adoption agencies either...they also want the money! It is rediculous how expensive it is to adopt a child! The whole system is out of whack!
