started off this morning with my big twin completely ignoring me at school and calling one of the other mum's mummy, she has done this a few times now, totally blanks me always with the same mum,
then this evening after school we got into a conversation about birth mum, the girls decided that they wanted to see a picture of her which was fine but the only picture we have introduces them to birth dad as well so that opened up a can of worms,
my little twin has told me that she misses birth mum, wishes she lived with them and wants to go and see them.
they are both 4 so i understand that they have no real concept of what they are saying but it still was not a very nice conversation,
just venting, don't really expect a reply, we knew this day was coming and it has been building for a while, just found it a bit tough,
thanks for reading.

Oh I'm sorry you have had a rotten day. Just remember they don't know what the words mean. And our kids say I wish I was never born or I hate you I wish you weren't my mummy but they don't mean that either!

Ouch. That of course will hurt. You are only human.

Have no experience of adoption but as the other poster says they are only 4 and just lashing out. xx

Sorry you have had such a horrid day. My 6 year old tells me he hates me every day. It hurts.

I try desparately hard to wipe the slate clean each day so we always start in the morning on green!
