[quote=Anonymous]My younger sister is adopted. We love her and always treated her like my bio sister (she even looks like my family). She's always felt like she didn't belong though. My mom's dad ran out on her when she was a child (fled the state, I don't mean they just got divorced). My mom has always compared the abandonment she felt from her dad leaving to what my sister felt. She said there's always a sense that you weren't good enough to keep your parents. I was always pro adoption before, but now as we're older and have our own families I don't feel the same way. My sister has started spending holidays and trips with her bio family that she found (she found them in her 20s) instead of our family. [/quote]
