When you speak ill of the child's bio family, you are speaking ill of them. We all have our challenges. My son's father was one big bag of challenges, but it never occurred to me to speak ill of him to my son because of the obvious. My son has been able to build a relationship with his father without toxic input from me. I really try to not do toxic.

It slays me the people who claim to love adoption yet seem to hate adoptees and their natural parents. WTF.
