I'm sorry for your niece Salukigirl. You bring up the one thing that baffles me beyond belief. How does a person have more children, realize the love and joys that come with those children and still have other children out in the world that they willingly have no contact with?
I'm not talking about giving a child up for adoption, to me that's different, you've made a decision that you are not able to take care of the child and do what is best for the child. It's an honorable decision.
But how do you look at your children every day and not think about that other child that is left behind? How do sleep at night? How do you look at yourself in the mirror?
OR the granparents, I just do not understand how you KNOW that you have a grandchild out there and just ignore their existance?
