Passing it On


If you were defrauded or treated unethically by the agency with whom I worked, please contact me. I have information to pass on. (HI AGENCY SPIES! ARE YOU ENJOYING MY BLOG? WEE!)

    Slightly OT, but I noticed a few days ago someone on the forum was inquiring if anyone had experience with said agency. I was hoping you saw it and would PM her. Just a heads up…like you don’t have anything else to do!

    Jenny; Actually, I won’t be doing that. My agency recently “trapped” me by soliciting my opinion by posing as a legitimate new member and then using what I said against me in various ways. Yes, they are the epitome of all things unethical in adoption agencies. Sigh.

    Jenna, but can they stop you from saying what happened to you? As long as you aren’t lying (and I KNOW you aren’t, I’m just saying legally) what on earth could they do to you? Or was it because you are an employee of the site that you have to watch what you say? Just curious, but it seems like they don’t really have a leg to stand on, but I might be naive.

    Ding ding ding for the specific site reference. Sigh.

    Is the agency Bethany?

  • Jenna March 8th, 2008 at 6:53 pm #6

    No, not Bethany.

    I guess I am totally lost because I didn’t know you worked for an agency.

    I didn’t work “for” them. I worked “with” them to place.

    Bethany is reportedly little better (if any) than the agency that Jenna worked with. And then, there’s Gladney. The top three worst offenders in my ming.

    I just noticed someone asking on a forum about the agency Jenna used. I referred them to the link on their website about “aggressive birthmother recruiting.” A few others chimed in and I think they got the picture quickly!

    Ha!, I figured it might be Bethany, too. I think I know which the other it may be. Egad, they “trapped” you! They must be feeling a tad exposed.
