I think I may know what is happening with the family that adopted your son.

In my situation, my husband was uneasy about the visits. It took me over 1 1/2 years to convince him that I wanted to reach out to our daughters birthmother and have visits. It was hard for him and it still is. He wanted to give me a child and now he feels like he has to share this child. I don't think he fully understands the pain of the birthmothers and the very simple fact, that this child will always have two mothers. Since we have had our first visit, my husband has done a 90% change, still a little work to go, but much better.

Try not to take it to heart so much. Understand that the amom wants to see you and honor your feelings. Try not to be hurt that adad has problems. She will work on him and in time, I am sure, he will come around.

Good luck to you!
