First let me preface with a little history.
We have legal custody of Harley (she is 8). I've known both her parents since she was born and we hear from them every year or so.
We have adopted Shawn (7) and Shilo (5). I am familiar with bio mom & dad and dad's parents & family. We met while they were in foster care with us & maintain contact with them all. Contact is ALL initiated by bio family so it's when they want it, which is fine with me at this point.
Zackery, who is 4, came to live with us at 2 days of age. He was marijuana & cocaine positive at birth. His mom (who was a self proclaimed prostitute & drug addict) left the hospital 2 days after delivery & NEVER tried to have contact with him in any way. Dad is unknown.
OK - the other night I was laying in bed with Zack reading him a story & he said "Mommy, whose belly was I in?". I said, "Her name was _____." That was it!! He didn't ask any more questions & went right to sleep. I started to elaborate a little but decided since he only asked one question & didn't seem interested in knowing more I would keep my mouth shut FOR NOW. He will know that his mom really did do a wonderful thing by not trying to raise him if she wasn't able but I do worry about him "wondering" about his mom & even more so his dad because I just don't have information to give him & what I do know isn't pleasant. I suggest you just make sure he always knows he is adopted & that you love him very much. Let him know that his bio parents love him too - whether they are involved or not. GOOD LUCK!!
