[QUOTE="Abbey, post: 171627, member: 179"] been there done that. All I can say is I'm glad they have you to comfort them. I've raised 18 yr. old easy child since he was 4. I'll never forget the first time I met him. He was shy, but had the BIGGEST brown eyes and eyelashes that any woman would kill for. J did his best to sabatoge any kind of relationship. easy child's bio mom told me immediately she was totally comfortable with easy child calling me mom. (She's a lovely person.) Soon after that, easy child called me mom and that was the first time I saw J literally beat him up. Nice choice...beat up a 4 year old. Fast forward all these years, he's started calling me mom and introducing his friends to me as mom. I tell you what...the first time he said that, I started crying. (He, in the meantime, is looking at me like I'm a dork.) Kids are not stupid, even the young ones. It comes down to who is there to care and comfort them. Just keep doing your great job. Deep down, they know you are MOM. Abbe [/QUOTE]
