Blacksheep - thank you for your input. I have lived many years with no one but a close friend knowing how my daughter was conceived. I wrote a letter to my own mother today explaining things to her and I will go on to let the adoptive mom know as well. I think the child is too young to know such details, but perhaps when she gets older her mom will simply tell her. You said, "She will do anything within her power to try and stop the hurt and help to heal her child. Would you do any less for the child that you are rearing?"
No - I wouldn't do less. Having a daughter at home myself, I can empathize with the adoptive parents being protective and wanting the best for their child and attempting to resolve any issues she may have. I can't blame them for that and am certainly trying to see it from their point of view.
Thanks again for your response!
take care,
becki
