Pretty much in th same vein as how every agency and a great majority of professionals use "birthmother" for a woman even considering adoption and before she has signed relinquishment papers...making us all get use to improper use of terminology. Annoys the crude out of me and is coersive to boot. I personally beleive it is one of the way that ‘happy adoption’ language gets thrown about.
