I am asking Ms Blackwell a question because she is a senior person in the Rape Crisis Centre. There are people listening to these proceedings who would like to hear this from a professional such as herself. If the two people I mentioned were in the room, how would Ms Blackwell think they would feel? Their biological mothers accepted them and they were born and had good lives. Can Ms Blackwell give me any kind of a comment?
