[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I've been there, but from a slightly different perspective: I found out as an adult that I had a full sibling who was placed for adoption when our parents were in high school. After a few years of going back and forth, I looked for him, and I found him. We have a good relationship - but our parents do not. He met and was in touch with our mother for a few years, but they are no longer in touch. Our father never agreed to meet with him. On the other hand, my brother's brother (also adopted) found his birth family and they have a warm relationship - parents and siblings. The problem is there's no way to know which scenario you're going to wind up with, so your husband has to be willing to take a pretty huge leap. If your husband truly wants to reach out, he needs to be prepared for both the best case scenario and the worst. I think talking to a therapist would be a great idea if you can convince him, because whatever the outcome it will be extremely helpful to have someone to speak to after he makes contact. Good luck to him. [/quote] Why did your father never want to meet his son? Guilt? [/quote]
