Proudmum, Wow, I didn't realize it had been that long since the thread started. I wonder what happened in that situation.
I do tend to generalize sometimes. I really mean no offense and I'm hoping that people who get to know me in this group will know that I'm never meaning any offense to anyone and that a lot of times I'm just steaming off or maybe just saying something that I feel about certain subjects that hits a nerve with me.
I truely don't mean to offend anyone. I could have put the word, "some adoptive parents" instead of the way I put it.
I've had my face reaaranged once for saying the word, "If" instead of "because" when refering to the man I was going out with doing something for me.
I said, "IF you loved me you should understand..." instead of "Because you love you should understand..." and that got me beaten up for the wrong word being said.
I didn't mean it the way HE took it and no matter how much I tried to explain it didn't matter. If he'd known me better he would have known what I was saying and it wouldn't have caused so much trouble.
It's just something I have a problem with sometimes. My wording. Yes I do feel more adoptive parents feel anything they do for the first mother is a "courtesy" but I know not all do. I should have put that in there. But I'm hoping that people here will not get offended by something like that when I don't use the right words or put enough words in to make the complete thought or whatever is going on.
I like this group. I'm never wanting to offend. But I know it's going to happen anyway but truely it's not meant.
