That confused me too, when Jackie said that she was angry when she met her son, the only thing I could think is that she was not angry with him personally, just the situation as it was all those years ago, and the anger of what happened then, has come into her life now. I'm not sure.

Would love you to explain a bit more on that Jackie. I am interested in hearing how birthmothers feel, what they go through. It helps me to understand my own birthmother better. Maybe she feels the same as you Jackie.

I, personally, feel birthmothers should not beat themselves up for the past. You were doing what you thought was the RIGHT thing at THAT time. Although it is easy for me to say that as I am not in your position.

I cant imagine how you both feel, but I do try to understand.
