Let’s agree to disagree. The child needs to be with who will care for her physically, mentally and spiritually. I don’t know who that is, but the biological mother had that first right by giving birth. Once she gave it up, her rights and the needs of the child were subject to others to decide. No matter her reasons, unfortunately once you give up that precious right, sometimes you don’t get it back. Culturally, I think we feel differently about this. I have seen many people raise children they did not give birth to and whose birth parents gave them up. Ideally each child should be with their birth parents, but that doesn’t exist in this world today. Obviously makers knew what they were doing bringing her birth mother into the picture. Look how passionately we are discussing this. You would think this was real people.
In that case Anupamaa and Anuj are not the ones who can care for her. But I don't think that matters, if I as a parent am fit to look after my child why the hell should she be handed over to some random couple without my consent or permission? If I can take care of my child now and have the means to provide for her wellbeing no freaking way will I let the foster parents who just had her for a few months keep her. Fact is if I never gave up my parental rights then no body can tell me that they are going to keep my child as theirs just because they had her for a short while. As a parent I will not tolerate it, forget me I don't thing any parent would tolerate it. A mother who left her child in foster care temporarily would have done so because of a certain situation that may have made it difficult to keep her close for her own well being, there is a difference between putting a baby up for adoption and leaving in just plain foster care, i know this because my mom left me as a chikd with my grandparents as it was not possible to keep me around due to a situation but she did come back for me and that is what matters. For example if I had to leave my child at my sister's care because I had to leave for work overseas and taking the baby along was simply not possible and I really need that job so I leave but then I find out my sister who is childless wants to adopt my child, do you think I'll allow it? Hell no. There is a difference between a temporary caretaker and parent.
This is just like people renting a house start claiming ownership of the same and fight with the landlord.
