[QUOTE="everywoman, post: 243614, member: 1436"] As a child who was raised by someone other than her bio mother, I can tell you that the feelings of an "adopted" child change greatly upon maturity. When I was a young teen, I thought my biomom was "cool." I even went to live with her after graduation. It took having my own children to recognize how very special my grandparents were to take me in and raise me like their own daughter. I recognize now my biomom's issues. I resent her thinking she is somehow responsible for the success I've achieved as an adult. Your daughter will always be your daughter. It doesn't matter who gave her birth---you gave her life.
