[QUOTE="DDD, post: 527836, member: 35"] Interesting perspective, Buddy. I watched today and I thought alot about the emotional reunification. Those of us who have been "connected" parents "know" that there is a bond needed for children to feel secure. I may be too subjective but I know from living it...the children I raised want "me" to be there for their traumas, illnesses and triumphant moments. It's OK (and sometimes even better) when bioMom is there. on the other hand the bond is with the loving caretaker who consistently has provided structure and peace and support. It may be because I have health issues and perhaps am not thinking fairly but...having those children relocate eventually when their bioMom has stayed clean, established a new life in an unfamiliar city...away from their grandparents and extended family. Sorry, I don't see it. It's a lose/lose situation in my humble opinion. Very sad for everyone. DDD [/QUOTE]
