People need to find their own way of understanding things. We really can't be taught or told on these IA issues that remain the issues of the adopted child. I imagine we APs can only see a part, then another,then another glimpse of a previous partial understanding... maybe only if we try try try. My Kids will remember if I have tried, that we were in it together. That might be a big thing next to the love, a kind of proof of love, when they are grown.
