Membership Form
We welcome as members Mothers of the Baby Scoop Era who have
the time and energy to invest in research on the Era.
The Baby Scoop Era Research Initiative is a closed and private
project that functions in an office-like environment. We are
a work group focused on solely on research and education regarding
the BSE. We are not an advocacy group, support forum or social
group. Our project consists of the website, www.babyscoopera.com,
and a message board. In order to join, and to protect members
as much as possible, we ask that you send an email answering
the following fourteen questions to
us. After you have completed the questionnaire, please
go to our
Forum and sign up. Our Membership Task Force will review
your application as soon as it is practical. Mothers accepted
for membershp will be notified by email.
- 2. Current email address:
- 3. City and State of residence:
- 4. In what year was your child taken by adoption?
- 5. Was it an agency or private adoption?
- 6. Did you stay in a maternity "home?" (If yes,
which one and where):
- 7. Have you ever adopted a child? (If so, under
what circumstances and what age):
- 8. Do you agree that adoption should be substituted
with "kinship care" or "legal guardianship?"
- 9. Do you agree that terms such as "birth mother"
and "relinquish" should be replaced with reality-based
terms such as "mother" and "surrender?"
- 10. Do you recognize that there is no such thing
as an adoption "triad?"
- 11 How did you hear about BSERI? Were you referred
? If so, by whom?
- 12. Are you a member of any other adoption related
group? If so, what screen names do you use in the
other groups?
- 13. What skills can you contribute to the project?
- 14. Have you read and do you accept the BSERI mission
statement?
Once we receive your application
information, it will be reviewed by our Membership
Task Force. Mothers accepted as members will be notified
by email.
