[QUOTE="BusynMember, post: 679291, member: 1550"] I think you said the right things. My son is adopted and his birth mother was a drug addict. I told him she was sick and that addiction is an illness. I also tell him that underneath her illness im sure she is wonderful because he is. My son is now 22 and has a form of high functional autism but a happier, sweeter young man id never met. He also lives independently. I would just emphasize that she has an illness and dont.talk about her like she is bad. She is part of their identity. Good luck and bless your heart. [/QUOTE]
