It was not a statement to merely let it go. It was a statement that there are people who offend unintentionally or people who are ignorant. You can take the opportunity to teach someone without dwelling on what they have done to wrong or offend you. I never told the young woman she could not tell anyone that there are wonderful benefits of an adopted child knowing their biological parents. If that was how you perceived what I said than I am sorry that you were offended. I do believe that many children can benefit from knowing their biological parents if that is best for that particular child and both sets of parents in their life. Hearing positive stories of a happy reunion is wonderful and makes women like me who can have children, but also willing to love and share a child with another mother inspired.
