I have been reunited with my daughter for 2+ years now. I have been to visit her a her family for a week and as you can imagine, it was amazing. We have consistant contact via phone and e-mail. You know, in my heart, I always knew that I would see her again I am ever so grateful that we were able to become a part of each others lives early on (as she is still a teenager). I believe that this is more "proof" that I chose the RIGHT parents for her:)
Looking to make contact with other birthmothers in reunion with a teenager. I have a few friends who are adoptees that have met their birthmothers in their teenage years (they do not describe this a reunion as it is not ongoing by the adoptees choice) but do not report much positive feedback other that looking at someone who resembles them.....not to downplay that at all because I know it is significant.
Are you in reunion?

hi just wanted to say i guess im in a renunion. ive been seeing my daughter for a couple of years now shes a teenager too. im so happy that things are working out for you. im really not happy with my situation at all. i gave her to the parents who i thought were great but it turned out to be a total let down. i actually feel like suing them for misleading me. i used to absolutely adore them for 14 years then they really dropped the ball. i could have done as much damage to her as they did and that's what i wanted to prevent. sorry for the ranting i just got some extremely bad news today about my daughter.

I am working towards reunion with my son. We have each other's identifying info, and have been emailing for several months now. He is not a teenager, though. We did have a semi-open where we sent letters and updates, but it was mostly with his parents. He has expressed an interest in talking on the phone and meeting someday, but we are both kind of slow movers and cautious people by nature. I am glad we aren't rushing things, and hoping we are building a good, solid foundation for the future, but sometimes I think the pace could be a little bit faster!
I just started reunion with my DD who is 18. (wow, is SO weird to write that lol!!!) It's waaaayyyy too early to tell how it will go, but our intentions are good. As far as what she wants, she says she wants to know everything about me and for us to have an ongoing relationship. I had a semi open with her mom for years, so she's already seen pics and had basic info about me, and me of her. Hopefully we will be able to take our time and build a solid relationship , but only time will tell!
I have been reunited with my son now for over 20 years. We first met face to face shortly after his 18th birthday. We did have some significant challenges based on his age at the time, but as he grew older, things settled down quite a bit in our relationship.
The amount of contact we have nowadays ebbs and wanes at times...but the important thing is that we're comfortable with each other...and honest. We're both in this for life... :loveyou:
