    Hey, I just have a query/thought/issue.

    Basically, I have been fostered by the same family from the age of 2 until I was 18 and then I was adopted by them. (My adoptive parents are my birth mothers aunt and uncle) I turn 20 in feb.

    I have no connection towards my adoptive mother whatsoever, Would I have missed out on the maternal love/bond that I would have gotten from birth till I was 2 years of age from my birth mother?

    I think it's more that no one knows what to say. We've no way of knowing how she treated you, or how she felt for you. It may be the kind of thing better dealt with via speaking to her or a counsellor.

    Yeah, I understand. I cant remember my BM back then at all, I don't hate her, but I do resent the whole situation. My adoptive mother treats me just fine, but I just don't love her like I think I should.

    I've been contemplating counselling for a couple years, and it's in motion atm
