[quote=Anonymous]Wow, I'm disgusted at a lot of the responses on this post, and astounded at how little a lot of you seem to know about family dynamics and children who grow up in abusive households and/or houses with mental illness and addiction. None of you should be telling OP what role she plays in her family, from what it sounds like, she has been the ONLY mom in the kids for the last 3 year, likely more given what she's said about the addiction and mental health issues. As a family therapist, I see this dynamic ALL THE TIME, and there is NOTHING wrong with it. Just because there isn't an adoption does NOT mean that she isn't "100% their mom," or that a woman is deserving of the title because she birthed the kids. The mom is the one who is a mother to the kids. End of story.[/quote]
