I am of the same mind. There are SO many reasons why parents should honor their agreement (no matter how informal, written or verbal) about communicating with each other for their child's benefit.
As an adoptive mom, although I have barely received any contact from our son's bmom so far, I will always hope that she knows she can contact us any time and will do that when she is ready or needs to. I hope this for my son's sake. I hope this for her sake. I hope this even selfishly for my sake.
SIGH. Some people just don't get it. WHY?
I don't know how to do anything to change this, other than continue to talk from all sides about the benefits and importance of keeping communication going so that more people will realize the impact they have on others' lives, most importantly their child's, and think twice before they make a decision that all may come to regret later.
I hope they'll reconsider and open up the contact again with you!
