[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]As an adoptive mom, I find it condescending and inappropriate. Adoption is no different than many other style families and her hyper focus tells me its more an issue for her than the kids. She may be grieving her infertility or have issues surrounding her adopting. [b]For a family tree - we just add an extra branch to include our child's birth mom and her family, whom we are very close to.[/b] When you make a choice to artificially twinning (as known in the adoption community) children by adopting so close in age, that is a risk you take. This is her hang up, not the children's or the teachers.[/quote] Ok. That works for your family. You see how this wouldn't work for all families, correct?[/quote]
