My children were adopted thru foster care so I don't think I ever would have even ran accross my children's bio parents. As for being friends, I can't say that I would be friends with Bear's mother because she is 17, and has been hard enough as a 37 year old to try to make it work as is. I think the age difference plays a big factor since I am older than her own mother. As for Bear's mother, I doubt it because there is definately a different set of morals and values in place. Maybe the age there too...24 as oppsed to my 37. I remember when I was 24...and I didn't have any of the issues she is dealing with...I never would have fathomed being friends with someone that "old".
But, foster/adopt definately is a different world than private adoption so I would like to think that there would be the possibility for a friendship outside of the adoption.
