Great thread, Warpe.

I also admire your decision not to contact your biological son, but that you've left the door open by keeping your contact info available if he ever changes his mind. I'm the father of two, an adopted daughter and a biological son. We have always left the door open for my daughter's biological mother to contact us, but it has not happened since her first birthday. We still send pictures and other things through the agency, but we've been informed that they've had no contact with her in the past 7 years.

In and of itself, this both gives me relief and pain. Relief that she is moving on with her life, and pain that my daughter may never be able to seek her out if she has such a need. It's a bundle of emotions that can't be put to words.
