[QUOTE="timer lady, post: 120162, member: 393"] David, in my humble opinion this isn't for you to explain to your son - you cannot speak for her & might make matters worse for your difficult child . Period. It's up to bio mom to explain. Is this sad? Darned right! No child should ever have to wonder about their mother; no child should be afraid of why their mother "let them go" or "if I was good enough". It's all wrong. My suggestion to you is to not take this on. It's simply not yours to explain. Let your difficult child know that you haven't a clue but it's sad that she's missed out on raising such a fine young man (or however you want to phrase it) & leave it at that. I learned this from 2 extremely well recognized adoption/attachment specialists here in my area. husband & I have stuck with that - simply because we don't know the true reasons to any of the "antics" that happened in bio home.
