[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]What an awful thing to do to someone, truly. You reaching out could absolutely ruin her peace in her life. Don't do that to someone. She's moved on. Your daughter needs a better therapist that teaches her to find peace without the external validation of others. [/quote] What an insane response. How do you know she has moved on? You might see a few smiling pictures of my mother on vacation and think she was happy with a husband and children, but the reality was that she was haunted every single day for 50 years about the child who was taken from her through adoption. She never had a moment's peace. The guilt and worry she felt was corrosive to not only her happiness but to all of us who had to live with the trauma she endured. I found my sister through DNA after she died. It would have brought my mom SO much solace to know that her baby had been safe and treasured and healthy all those years. But she never got that gift.[/quote]
