[quote=Anonymous]Just listen.. don't offer advice, don't talk about so and so who successfully adopted... let them do the talking. Don't be surprised if they pull away for a while. Give them space and wait 2-3 months and reach out again. Offer to go out to lunch, dinner. Know holidays are very hard. It took us many years and a lot of pain to adopt. Tell them its ok to give up hope, but don't stop trying. (we had no hope to the end but we kept minimally going and that is when it happened right when we were about to stop)[/quote]
