I have felt this way from time to time. But all I can do is love him unconditionally. From what I have read and learned through our agency, a lot of children go through the "your're not my real mom stage" That will hurt, but all you can is prepare for those comments.

I often think about how I will respond to that "What? I'm not real am I make believe? Am I invisible?" or "Oh I am the one who Really takes care of you and Really Loves you and Really etc etc etc. " I know I will totally forget these witty responses and just send him to his room so I can have a good cry. Afterwards we'll have a nice long discussion about adoption, his adoption story and what it means.
