I am an adopted adult, I never had a picture of my birth mother, even though I had an open adoption.
But, I am also a birth mother and my daughter, who is 12 now, has taken my picture to school and shared it with friends. She even has a picture of me on her MySpace page.
I don't agree or disagree with your handling - I only encourage you to explore her feelings...she may be responding to your 'closing off' of her feelings on the matter...or she may not.
Either way, you're the mom - you decide.
