Re: When To Tell | | I agree with Mindy, the sooner the better.
Although it's not identical, it's similar. I am adopted and my parents never hid that information from me. I don't even know when they first told me, I was so young. I grew up always knowing I was adopted and it was just a natural thing for me. I think that was the best thing. I never resented my parents for hiding information and I knew they would support me if I wanted to learn more about my bio parents.
Your son is older now, but the sooner he's told, the sooner it can be part of him, just a natural thing in his life. |
