Is adoption an option? In 1985, I experienced a bizarre dream whose manifestation into the waking world was already in progress when I awoke to watch it all again in the real, waking world. I don't know what this kind of dream is called, but I was dreaming it one minute into the future. Understanding is never a waste, and here I pass its message on to anyone who either is or knows a young person faced with a serious life decision while in the paralyzing grips of people-pleasing.
