Advice from Bmoms
Hi there,
I have a question for all women who placed or are thinking about placing. I am an amom and next week we are going to visit my son's birthfamily. He has 3 bio brothers all older than him. They know about him and that he is their brother. It is really important to my husband and I for our son to know his brothers and for them to have that sibling bond even though they live 8 hours away. So I bought all 4 boys a necklace and charm that just says brother. I thought it would be something they could hold onto over the years to remind them of each other in between visits. And the bfamily also encourages this bond - we consider each other extended family even though we didn't know each other before my son was born. Anyway my question is, do you think I am overstepping any bounds by just presenting this gift to the boys during our visit without telling their parents first. Thanks.

I too think it's a great idea.
And....I am really impressed with what you are doing for your son and his other family. You are truly inclusive and being great role-models for your children in later life. Ann

As a bmom, I can only say I am jealous of your son's bmom. What a great thought, and I totally agree with the rest, what a beautiful idea!. Cheers!

I think you have a fabulous idea and a giving heart. It is unfortunate that sibling relationships get sacrificed because of decisions parents make. I applaud your effort in recognizing the value of those relationships for your son and his brothers.
 What a value you are to all of them. Amoms like you have truly softened my heart.
