A statement that bothers me

I heard it through the grapevine that J's bmom says she has a year to change her mind about the adoption. They both signed TPR's and the adoption was finalized 5 months ago. I know deep down it's not true, but I still worry. Should I call the lawyer and ask? Or am I making too much of this?

Thanks in advance!

If the adoption is finalized, how could this be true? I would call if it puts your mind at ease

I would suspect if she said it was more of a deflection. Maybe someone was asking her about the adoption and she wasn't comfortable talking about it. More of a quick way to end the conversation ... I wouldn't worry too much.

Maybe she actually believes it, or maybe she's in denial that it's final. She may need some counseling or more counseling if she's already had some. Also, I think you should talk to the attorney so that he/she can make sure that J's bmom knows that that is not the case.

I don't know of any state that has a year revocation period.

Good luck.

I don't believe you have anything to worry about.
Call your lawyer though, just for peace of mind.

i agree with the others. she probably doesnt believe it herself. she is probably just saying this to make herself and others feel better.

Thank you everyone. I "know" it's final, but after everything that has gone on-I WORRY! Y'all have put my restless mind at ease!
