[QUOTE="BusynMember, post: 717552, member: 1550"] My adopted kids do not walk around feeling sad about being adopted. They all say they had great childhoods, even Bart (he wasnt adopted but he mopes the most). All of my adopted kids have been told we woukd help them search. None have. They have thought about being adopted, but are not consumed. I hope to see Jumpers birthmother once again. I love her to death. As for this young lady, I think it is smart to assume that with all her moves in early years and a history of a bio. Mom who was very promisuois, you cant kn3ow how much she is genetically her mom and how messed up she could be from the instability of her first five years where she was passed around then relinquished for good. See how it goes. Right now her real parents are her adoptive parents. I will bet her life has been difficult, not because of being adopted as much as because her early years, whether her conscious mind remembers or not, were a mess. The first three years are critical to later stability and attachment. Not saying for sure she will be a mess, but she has red flags and bio. Mom is not stable...watch out for bio. Mom her to be a problem. This situation is complicated. Dont rush into it until hub knows what he is dealing with. [/QUOTE]
