Fost/adopt mom in open adoption
Hi, I'm Elizabeth, and I'm a fost/adopt mom in a sort-of open adoption. My son is two and a half, and he came to me at age 21 days. Parental rights were terminated by the courts when he was 18 months old.
By "sort of open," I mean that we have frequent phone conversations with my son's bmom, and swap pictures and letters. No visits, because we're in different states, but I wouldn't object to her visiting if she were here. It'd have to be supervised visits until her life situation changes, though.
We don't have any contact with my son's birthdad because, unfortunately, he's not a safe person to be around. If he changes his life, though, he's more than welcome to come back and be a part of his/my/our son's life.
