[QUOTE="LittleDudesMom, post: 413811, member: 805"] Geeze Linda. Has she been able to articulate clearly why she wants to drop out of school? One of my closest friends has a 21 year old adopted daughter. When they went to court for the final adoption hearing (making it legal), the judge actually ordered the bio mom to write a letter to the daughter to be placed in her file for her to read, if she chose, at 18. Now we are talking a mom without the issues kt and wm's mom had. This was a woman who already had five children and realized she couldn't handle another and actually sought out a lawyer, wanted a Christian family, wanted a stay at home mom, etc. She chose not to read the letter when she was 18 - who knows how she will feel in future years.... I could never imagine dealing with the deck you deal with, but if I were you, I would let kt know that when she is 18 she perfectly welcome to seek out answers to bio family questions on her own dime and her own time. I would tell her I do understand her feelings of wanting to search - but that it was not something you are willing to contribute to either emotionally or financially. Hugs to you. Sharon [/QUOTE]
