Why?
Quoting couponluv72:I am in an open adoption with the people who are the parents of my 13 year old. currently i have cut off contact while I deal with some emotions i have about it.
Quoting PortiaRose:
Ouch. Does she know? Does she wanna talk to you?
i sent her a letter explaining i am struggling with the pain and sorrow i feel right now after seeing him last summer. and i need time to heal
My happiness is me, not you. Not only because you may be temporary, But also because you want me to be What I am not. I cannot be happy when i change Merely to satisfy your selfishness. Nor can I feel content when you Criticize me for not thinking your thoughts. Or for seeing like you do. You call me a rebel. And yet each time I have rejected your beliefs, You have rebelled against mine. I do not try ot mold your mind. I know you are trying hard enough , To be just you. And I cannot allow you to tell me what to be For I am concentrating on being me. You said that I was transparent, And easily forgotten. Why then did you try to use my lifetime, to prove to yourself who YOU are? -by Michelle from a leo buscaglia book
as an adult, I have to make hard choices sometimes. wether he wants me there or not, I am not mentally healthy enough to be there. I will not cause him harm with me being unstable and erratic

It's not technically closed so if they contacted us and wanted to know how he was I would respond but they haven't in the last 3 years so I take it they don't care anymore.
No, we never closed our adoption. We believe the promises made should be promises we keep. We still have such a wonderful bond and she will always be a part of our lives.
Cuz to be honest, I would close the adoption at around 4. I don't want my kid thinking he has two mommies. If you put in the time, you deserve the praise. I don't think its fair to not be able to care for a child, and expect to share that kid at all.

Do you ever get hit on even looking a mess?
Why inflict this silly cosmetic pain on a baby!?!
