[QUOTE="house of cards, post: 232151, member: 2005"] No advice, just in a similar space, adoption does add its own layers to deal with on top of the difficult child problems in my family. My oldest 3 have the same birthmom and I assume she is still a drug addict, my L has expressed interest in meeting her, I have her address and send her letters/pictures at times but she has no way to contact us. I've thought to have L write a letter to bm and I could mail it, I just don't know how much I want to encourage a relationship if bm is still leading her old life which is most likely. How do you prepare a child to be strong enough to reach out to their birthmom and yet strong enough to walk away if she would just drag her down...it ain't easy. [/QUOTE]
