Our good friends have one child. He is a son they adopted who is about to turn 10. ... a few days ago, the mother mentioned her son still “has no clue” that he is an adoptee.
DEAR AMY: Our good friends, a married couple, have one child. He is a son they adopted who is about to turn 10 years old.Years ago, the father said something to us about telling him when he is in high school.
“By the time a child is five or six, he’s already made assumptions, or even asked his parents to tell him stories, about the day he was born or what his mother’s pregnancy was like. Ashley and I agree that because you’ve already shared your opinion and misgivings, now it is time for you to stand down and continue to offer this family only your supportive friendship.I had signed up for PayPal recently, so I didn’t know their procedure when I got a text from what I thought was PayPal.I indirectly gave them money by buying Target gift cards, scratching the silver on the back of the gift cards and giving the scammer the numbers.
