Natural fathers
Mon, 18 Dec 2006 17:24:13 +0000
Are there any natural fathers out there looking in here?
If there are, I'd be really interested to hear your perspective on the
whole search and reunion thing. Have you been found?
What would you think to the prospect of being found particularly after a
good many years have passed by?

siblings as I was in finding my natural mother, I see them more as my first
family even though I last saw them when I was eight or nine months old in

Triad, does anyone else find the word inappropriate?
Mon, 18 Dec 2006 16:59:26 +0000
Hi All
I first aired this on the Norcap Forum, because they seem find it difficult

I've always disliked the use of the words triad and triangle in adoption,
which invariably ...
