[QUOTE="DammitJanet, post: 138172, member: 1514"] Not an adoptive mom here but what happened would really upset me too. YOU are the childs mother, the bio is simply that....bio. We have a somewhat similar situation with my oldest son. I left his dad when he was not even a year old. Divorce took longer because the man ran and I couldnt locate him for years to serve him. My current partner has been Billy's "father" since he was two. Billy had seen his bio father only twice in the first 18 years of his life and that was because I was nice enough to let Billy go visit his paternal grandparents in FL the only two times they asked. WE refer to Tony as "his father" or "your dad" anytime we are talking to people. Tony considers Billy as his son too. These things shouldnt be a big deal. I have had to use bio's health information a time or two but that is it. [/QUOTE]
