Hugs Scorpio.

I am sorry that you have been placed in an awkward situation. While on the outside it may appear to be an ideal situation for some, reclaiming the opportunity to parent, I am sure it is complicated far beyond what I can begin to imagine, as I have never been in your shoes. I am sorry that you came for support and were criticized.

The way I read your post was not that your bdaughter was "a problem" but that you felt very little support from her afamily and were all of a sudden thrust into the Mother role, which I think would throw a lot of us Bmoms for a loop, especially after I know many of us spend years trying to reconcile the fact that we will never get the opportunity to parent our placed children.

I wish I could give you some kind words of advice, but I am a long ways off from reunion, however, I can give you support.

Please keep us updated.

(((Hugs)))
