Adoption is the legal act of permanently placing a child with a parent or parents other than the birth parents. Whether you are looking to adopt, putting your child up for adoption, parenting an adopted child, or just thinking about it, this is the place to discuss.

I have been in contact with my son. He has been sending me messages the past few days inquiring about his heritage and my life. Well, today I have heard nothing, and I am very distraught. My question: how many of you were mad at your biological parents when you first met them?

I'm trying to exercise daily. I was doing fairly well until I sprained my ankle 2 weeks ago but now I'm getting back on the horse. Today I walked over a mile with my arm weights that are about 22lbs total. I was out of shape and it was hard on my arms. I also did my 30 situps. I'm also going to drink a lot of water and try to eat healthy. I do tend to have a sweet tooth but I'm cutting...
I just recently found my b-mum and Ihave never been mad or angry with her. Please don't worry, I am sure there is a good reason why he hasn't been in contact today. I feel exactly the same when my b-mum doesn't email me (we mail practically everyday)and I worry that I have done something to upset her and that's never the reason. How old is your son? I only ask because from my perspective (I am 35) the older I have got, the more understanding I have had of why I was adopted in the first place. As you become more mature you realise that the act of adoption was usually a selfless act by the b-mum rather than a selfish one
Keep in contact with your eldest, every so often just ask how he's doing at one point he'll respond and keep the lines open with the aparents, it's the best source of info your going to get right now. You know he's safe right now just stay strong. I looked at your profile and you have a daughter and stepson at home, concentrate on them for the holidays. GL hon
I was adopted when I was three days old. I was able to contact my birthmom when i was 14 and met her for the first time over this summer. =) My situation is kind of like your but only reverse. I'm doing the same things you are and wondering the same thoughts. Coming from an adoptee who is 17 i would say give him a little space. He's probably thinking everything through. You're doing nothing wrong at all. Give him a little space and in a few days or a week email him or IM him and say Hi just thinking about you or Hey hope you're having a good day. I'm here if you want to chat. Or somethiing to that effect. If i was in this situation taht's how i would like my bmom to do. Good luck! Praying for you!
