Please Understand MY Experience Is Coming From A FOSTER-ADOPT Perspective. So, As I've Been Told Time And Time Again. MY THOUGHTS, FEELINGS, EXPERIENCES AREN"T VALID. So Take them For What Their Worth. I'll Let You Be The Judge.

Why Do I Even Bother??? =0(

Interesting signature - I don't think ANYONE has invalidated your feelings - we just ask that you NOT apply them to ALL birthparents, which you have a habit of doing.

I notice, any time someone calls you on your 'posting habit' you edit your signature or create a post talking about how you've been invalidated.

I wonder if you've ever considered how your messages invalidate others...when you post your blanket statements.

I'm sorry

Brandi,

I am very very sorry for offending you as that was not my intention.

I wish you the best with your birth daughter I truly do. I hope you guys enjoy every minute you have together. I do ADMIRE the wonderful relationship you share with her adoptive family as it has been a source of much strength to me as I struggle through my own "open adoption".

I hope we can put all this behind us and be here to support one another. That's what we are here for. Agai I'm very sorry for the pain I've caused.
