[quote=Anonymous]First, you are a great mom; keep up the positive dialogue when they bring it up. Ignore the stupid troll comments. It’s natural for kids- people to wonder where, whom, when they were born (what time, place, city, etc.). After a number of times my kids (I have adopted boys) had asked, mentioned, threw the reference at me - I finally said to the one son who kept pushing it , “Look just because I didn’t poop you out of my uterus doesn’t mean I’m not your mom. I’m standing here in front of you I’ve changed your diapers, taken care of all your boo boos and kissed you every chance I could and can get. I feed you- love, food, and motherly lectures on being being kind, show manners, lift the toilet seat, and to flush the damn toilet... You betcha I’m your real mom. Now for the love of God go wash your hands, and brush your teeth, we’re leaving for school in ten minutes!! Pinch me! I’m here, I’m your mother. I’ve smelt and dealt it!” He came and pinched me, “ Yeah, you’re my real mom!”[/quote]
