[QUOTE="Rina, post: 652966, member: 18848"] Thank you guys for your responses. Parents here can really understand what we're going through. We've never really dealt much with the adoption, but there never seemed to be much of a need. Throughout son's childhood, we moved from one country to anothe due to my husband's job, and the potential issues that occupied our minds were the identity/belonging issues related to Third Culture Kids (children who grow up as "global nomads") rather than those of adoptees (that's also why we've never had access to things like support groups for adoptees/adoptive parents). Son has hardly ever brought it up. It always seemed to me that he doesn't really care much and that he's put it all behind him. Now I hate myself for assuming that. I feel so stupid. Jane, thank you - I will look into the website. My fear now is what will happen until we work something out. So much has already gone wrong, and I'm worried it'll only get worse. [/QUOTE]
