[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My third is adopted. It was a calling that DH had VERY strongly and literally told me on our second date so I honored that. I can honestly say I love her as much as my bio kids. I can also honestly say I don't see any issues to come yet (she's 9) but I also know that time is fluid and all things change and can change in an instant.  One theory I always agree with and truly believe in is "Adoption is a permanent solution for a temporary problem."  DD knows her birth mom (Goes by Auntie Larla) and she knows she is her birth mom and it seems like a great relationship from DD's end.  She gets extra presents on holidays and birthday, gets one more audience member at the dance recital, gets an extra valentine etc etc.  I think its a very painful and troubling relationship for birth mom though.  Its 9 years later and now she is done with college, married to a somewhat wealthy person, and has an adorable 2 year old.  She would have NO ISSUES raising DD from this point on. None. She would be great.  But life isn't that way.  Adoption is forever.  Now she's my baby and that pain is real. That pain is raw.  I don't know what I can do about it but I do acknowledge it. [/quote]

wait, are you saying you had an open adoption and now the birth mother would probably (at least you suspect) like to take the kid back and has the resources to do so?

That is a very complicated situation for all concerned I would think.[/quote]

I don’t think that’s possible because the daughter now has children of her own! Read the entire post moron.[/quote]

Np here,  PP no I think you need to read.  Because the DD who was adopted is 9 now, so how can she have her own kids?  Why so angry?[/quote]
