i’m the decider...

I’m thinking again...if you adopt a child you really should have all of the extended family involved in the raising of that child. If they can’t stand behind you and support you then maybe you should question if you should really adopt...it takes more than 1 or 2 people’s love and assistance to make that child feel like they belong to a family. That child already feels like no one wants them so you really should try to make them feel like a whole family wants them...
In my situation it felt like only my adoptive mother wanted me...my adoptive father tried so hard to keep my adoptive mother’s family from visiting us unless he wanted something from them...
