Julie, I think there are just some APS that do not believe 100% that open adoption is beneficial to the child and are kind of sticking their toe in the water. Then there are the adoptee's who say only closed is good. So when something makes them skiddish (be it fear or whatever) they pull out their toe.(the adoptee opinion would make them feel it is okay)
I also think there are some emotions we Amommies Adaddies (all parents really)have that are just so primal, that we can not rationalize them as merely "fear based" and sometimes we mis~identify the "enemy". We "react" immediately to the percieved "threat" and our instincts override our ability to self observe.IMO
Can someone please proof read this? Is it offensive?
