diversity
Hi
I am 46 and I have a 3 year old adoptive daughter from equador and I do remember the unspoken questions, but I have learned to keep a straight face and answer question.
my advice: It takes time to get rid of the sentitivity.
Respect others feeling about being different and keep an open mind - and believe me there are older moms out there. Join an adoptive parents group or look through other neigborhoods for more open-minded playgrups. YMCA is one place where there could be more diversity.
It is not always about what is being said, but how it is perceived.
Good Luck
