[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I'm also an adult adoptee. I was born in 85 and, from what I understand, my birth mom was as young as you were. It was a closed adoption and I have no idea who this woman is, although she knows who my adoptive parents are. 
I grew up knowing I was adopted and I have wondered every single day of my life why my birth mom hasn't looked for me. I have wondered if she thinks about me at all, if she wonders whether or not I had a good life and if she would like to know that I have now a beautiful family of my own and am expecting my second child.
It hurts a lot. Not that I was adopted, but how I was adopted and how, instead of having a loving birth mother to add to my adoptive family, I have always a feeling of grieving for the parent I never had.

Why haven't you tried to contact your child?[/quote]

NP and adult adoptee. These are my feelings and questions as well.[/quote]

First pp here. I guess since OP has been back to answer others, but haven't answered my question, she is ignoring it. Which is probably more telling than answering it at all.[/quote]

I think it's pretty awful of you to be judging and trying to guilt trip the OP based on your experiences.  I'm sorry that you've had a painful life, I definitely think you need some therapy, but the OP is not your birth mom, and you have no right to judge her for what she did and the fact that she has not contacted her child.[/quote]
