[QUOTE="Christy, post: 168159, member: 225"] Thanks guys for helping me reframe this in a positive light. I never thought of it as bragging-LOL! We did discuss why it wasn't appropriate to start a conversation this way and I once again tried to explain that it was not just that his birth parents were poor but that it was that they were not able to learn the skills necessary to take care of and parent a child. It is actually kind of hard to explain to him because in reality, they needed to do very little and social services was really trying to support them but they just didn't bother to do the things they needed to do :( Marg, that is too funny! I am sure your friend really appreciated his critism. [/QUOTE]
