Birth Parents - do you get a letter from them?

Just that really. I would be interested to hear whether people do get letters.

We had to send a letter to BPs last month - which we did - and I was really expecting to get something back. I know Social Services can be slow to send things on but I checked in a few days ago and they had had nothing in. We are meant to exchange letters in September.

I know BPs may find it hard but for some reason, it has upset me. Our meeting with BM went well - and she was adamant she would write to us as she realised how important it was for our son.

Did anyone else feel let down by BPs if they didn't get a letter or is it me being over sensitive? I just want my DS to grow up knowing his BPs loved him and yet their actions don't really show it...and I would have thought a short letter to us/him would be one action.

I know I am being hard on BPs - I know it must be difficult to write a letter - but I feel somewhat let down for my son.

Pixie thank you so much for sharing. I am so sorry to hear about your family situation and hope that things will change, in how your sister feels. Maybe that something will make a difference sometime to how your sister feels.

It is always helpful to hear things from another point of view.
