Maybe this will change with time but I feel that I know that I am my sons mom so it really does not matter what anyone else calls me. The truth is I adopted him into my family so I am an adoptive mother. I think that as long as the terms are not used to inflict pain and you are secure as a parent it really should not matter...alot of my friends call Grahams bio mom and dad his "real" mom and dad when asking a question but I know that no harm was intended. My son will grow up and know his bio mom and dad and they feel the same way I do. If we need to be technical why don't we call the adoptive parents the Legal parents...and the other mom and dad the bio mom and dad...bc they gave the biology and we went through the legal system, and if you were offended by that then you are too sensitive!!
