[QUOTE="pigless in VA, post: 717520, member: 11832"] Wow, Kim. That's a lot to wrap a mind around, for sure. I think since the daughter is grown, that there is no reason your husband [B]has[/B] to talk to her biomother. There may come a time in the future where he may need to be around her for his daughter's sake, like a wedding or a funeral. He only needs to be courteous and civil. I know your youngest is struggling right now. I don't think I would clue him in on the reality yet. He's too young. I wouldn't keep it a secret, maybe just not fully explain what he won't comprehend. My brother is adopted and has never wanted to meet his birth parents, so I don't have much to add. I think if you are being supportive of your husband that is all you need to do at the moment. They will figure out where to go from here. Good for you for wanting him to know his daughter. [/QUOTE]
