[quote=Anonymous]Mom though adoption and step-mom. Your post is offensive. Biological Mom is a term used in adoption. OP is inappropriate to use it in the way she does but it is a normal term in adoption as is birth mom. And, I am 100% my child's mom. Her getting the mom a gift from the kids is a lovely thing. We get our child's maternal birthfamiy gifts regularly as they do all of us (read ALL). It is a healthy thing for the kids to be a part of.[/quote] Step moms can be 100% a child's mom as well. In which case, it would be appropriate to differentiate. Being that you know a very small amount of the story, and what is posted is probably the tip of the iceberg, maybe stop telling OP and her kids what they should be labeling. It's traumatic to tell a child what they have to label someone if that's not how they feel about them.[/quote]
