[QUOTE="BusynMember, post: 655347, member: 1550"] How old was he when you adopted him? Adopted mom of three here. My experiences in older child adoption is that they often don't attach well especially if they still have northeastern memories. We adopted a six year old from another country who never considered himself our son and he left with encouragement from his wife. My young adopters (infants) bonded well. It is hard to miss those early years and have them still bond to us, but it certainly is not your fault nor is it uncommon. [/QUOTE]
