Hey Janey!!!!

I think you are right on that it really doesn’t matter what you say there will be someone with an opposing view. That is what I appreciate about discussions, to learn a viewpoint I hadn’t considered.

In this journey of adoption, I think we can all learn a lot from the other sides of the triad.

Personally, I was happy that my daughter celebrated the day she came to her family. How could I not be happy for a day that means a lot to her! On the flip side….. the day she contacted me was one of the best days of my life!

IMO I agree that reunion day may be hard on the aparents just as family day is painful for the bparents. I also would hope that both days would be meaningful for the adoptee. That is what is important to me, my daughter.
