Introduction
I am the son of a single mother. So I want to address this situation. She never graduated from eight grade. Had four boys, worked as a waitress and had a husband that left her after the last boy was borne and was an alcoholic and died at fifty-two because of his heavy drinking. I never met nor knew my “birth father”.
I was put in a Catholic adoption center and my “real mom and dad”, Genevieve, and, Robert, adopted me at age three. My father was a World War Two veteran, electrician and owned several businesses. My mother was a stay at home mom. They both provided for me a “new life of opportunity” and have now passed on.

Does my son know that I love him?
Does my son know what he does is important to me?
Does my son know how proud I am of him?
