I don't have any children of my own. A mother is NOT a mother regardless of addiction. She's just some lady that gave birth to this child, chose her drugs over child, and abandoned her and refuses to support her in any way. And the Lord did not put this child in her womb, she's not the virgin mary. She got pregnant from intercourse just like most others.

She hasn't had custody since the child was 2. She's 10 now. I have been her Mom for three years and known her and watch her grow for many more than that. Her mother is a danger to her because she is a drug addict. Her two other kids are currently in foster care because of her drug addiction and her husband's spousal and child abuse.

Again, I say God didn't put that child in her womb, her actions did. I CAN truly say to myself that she does not love her kids. If she did she would still have custody of all three, which she doesn't because she loves her addiction more than herself or even her children. I know this woman, you don't. And you don't know me. I am doing no harm to anyone. She lost her children due to her own actions, I am here to give one of her children a mother that she never had. How does this make me a bad person? She's only sick because she made herself sick. I have no sympathy for addicts, I grew up with one and I know the pain it causes on families
