Yes I agree, you need to explain more before we can comment.
Your anguish is obvious flowers some maybe able to help if they had more detail.

Apologies Ashmore but I'm also confused. Are you talking about exchanging letters with a D you had who was adopted?

Ashmore, you are obviously in pain but I can't really understand your post. I am fairly new so I apologise if this is an ongoing issue. I am adopted myself so I am interested.

AIBU to feel cheated and hurt by Adopters letters? Her letters are happy in such a gloating way. She slips in information about her parents and uses granny and grandad phrases like she knows it hurts both me and my son who hates her. Mainly for broken promises made.
We are supposed to write cheery letters back not giving any hint of the wreckage she is part of. Our life is a mess since this event, mainly due to the cost incurred to us.
I am going to ask that she doest mention her parents again this time unless she calls them her parents.
We are expected to write letters on the memory of 3 years old photos as she refuses to part with even a picture of our GD up against a blank wall. I cannot believe she will keep her side of the bargain of sharing what we send as she grows up- simply preferring to recite the SS lies that will keep her hopes of our GD not wanting to find her dad when she grows up. We will no doubt be long gone by then.
Another grandchild is looming and decisions not to be called Granny Nana or such have been made. We cannot get excited about anything anymore
