Hi, our daughter is 9 years old . We adopted her when she was 6. she has a full sibling who lives with her family.She understands why she can't live with her bio family,but wants her sister who is 2yrs younger to come and live with us.They lived together for a few years .
Any suggestions. She is now talking about it at school and other kids don't understand.

Hi! We adopted 4 foster children as toddlers and later conceived through IVF, our son. I, too, have the same feelings towards all my children! We have had some confusion in our house lately, because the older kids, (7,6,,5,5) want to know when we will adopt our bio child(2). I explained it to my 7 year old and thought she "got" it, but, she still wants to adopt the baby! I think there will be tough times. My 7 year old has lots of questions, and I am always honest, to an extent. My children all have whole and half siblings. Some adopted and we keep in touch, some not and we have no contact. But, they know that they have these siblings and visit with some. My concern lately, is that, since they were adopted through foster care, and in the same town we live in, I am getting anxious to move to a different town, now they are getting older. What is your opinion on this. There are some pretty shady relatives in town here. They will only get more curious. I hope we connect.
