Thanks Txrnr, and Belle,

Lilolil, my point was simply that there are all kinds of forums here. Not all of them will be for everyone. I assume that there are adoptees who are grateful and that's why the forum exists. As I said, I do post all over the place, but I tend to avoid the forums that feed my anger.

I see no reason why my birth son should feel grateful to me anymore than my other 2 children should be grateful to me. It's certainly not something I look for. I only know that I love ALL my children dearly and want the best for them. Having been irresponsible enough to become pregnant in the circumstances I did, I acted in as responsible a manner as I could. D's birth was not planned, that doesn't mean I haven't always loved him. I personally am grateful that he chosen to let me be part of his life now and I am grateful to his parents who raised him.
