just found out my 7yr son has a 1yr old half brother
I am separated from my husband - have been for a few years. We have one son and a very amicable parenting plan. I just discovered that he has another son that he agreed to put up for adoption last year right after the baby was born. I don't know the birthmom. I am so incredibly sad for my son right now (he is 7). I feel overwhelmed that he will grow up not knowing his only other sibling and then have to process the fact that he had one all along when he is an adult. (It was a closed adoption.) I don't know if I have the right to communicate w/ the birthmom (or if my son's dad would give me the info to pursue communication or if she would be angry i contacted her). I guess i just need to vent because i found out just last nite and can't stop crying - does anyone know if my son has any rights to see his half brother. I suppose not but want to make sure.
