Agreed

I agree with ya Kitt,
I am not going to "split hairs" over how I am refered too. I was at one forum where the natural mother was refered to as the birth woman...It makes no difference to me, though I know some folks take offense to certain titles. I was the one who gave birth to my child so birth mother is okay with me. I was however, in no way a mother. A mother kisses the boo boo's , wipes the tears, helps with homework, comforts etc... I did not do any of these things..and I guess that is why I am not offended by the titles, I have accepted what my roll in my childs life was and is...not to say I would not love the opportunity to be her friend, and that is the best I will ever hope for.
Thanks for letting me share!
Tammie
