ad4ky, thanks for your compassionate insight from a man's point of view.

Nicole, I wonder if Matt was bothered by the fact that with the adoption of Marie there was even more "family" in your life. Not only does Marie have a birthfather out there somewhere but also her aparents as well as you, and maybe he feels a bit stretched to relate to all of these folks. It might have made his life a bit more complicated than he had envisioned. Just a thought, but anyway by now he has seemed to be bridging the gap.

Fatbirdy, so sorry for the way things turned out for you. How painful. I hope you are moving on OK.

Kindreds, that really is something to consider. Running for any office can be the end to secrets for a lot of folks these days.

This thread interests me as an amom hoping that my older children will accept my younger adopted son. It's about empathy, compassion, and integrity, and it seems some have it and some don't when the rubber hits the road.
