This is a very difficult subject for all of us I think. As i read through this thread, I thought about my own situation. D was almost 33 when we "reunited." I know that my "entrance" into D's life has been difficult for his mom. Love 4 you have given me something to think about. I've tried to make it clear that I'm not trying to compete with S. I don't want her place as his mother. She is the woman who raised him: I honor and celebrate that. D and I have a connection that I don't deny; it is for me a joy to discover who he is and build a relationship with him and his family. I do not want to make his mother uncomfortable or take her place. It is tricky to maneuver through this quagmire! Luckily neither D or I say or feel - S had him for 33 years and it's my turn now. It's never easy is it?
Blessings,
Kathy
