Hi Jude,
Thanks for your input. My husband and I have supported our daughter's reunion and understand her need. Hers has been a positive reunion once her birth mother agreed to deal with the past. The difficulty for us has been that there is so much literature, support, and understanding for the adoptee and the birth parents and so little for the adoptive parent. The process requires us all to "chart unknown waters" and we adoptive parents need to be included and supported, too.
Our daughter does not want to hurt us either, she has had difficulty talking to us about her situation after the reunion (but not before). How have you and your parents communicated?
Thanks!
