Thank you for answering and forgiving my naivety!! Your explanations make me feel much better! We are just beginning the adoption and are going to have an open adoption (not matched yet) and will be attending a seminar held by our agency and reading books. I love that our agency requires..no..gives us the OPPURTUNITY to do this research, it's amazing how beautifully complex open adoption is, yet what the amazing results it can have!! I know open adoption may come with struggles at times for me (and all adoptive parents), but well, to put it frankly it is not about ME, it is about my child!!! Thanks again, I look forward to listening and posting more to this board! (oh, and I don't mean to offend when saying birthmom, is there another term that is better to use?)
Thanks!
Natalie
