[quote=Anonymous]We have a child whom we adopted from China. It seems like whenever we as a family, meet someone new and engage in a conversation, one of the first questions/comments when our daughter is somewhere else is "is she adopted? is she from China? how old was she when you adopted her? etc. We understand people being curious, but her adoption status is not something we want to discuss. There are so many other things about her and things in general we would love to talk about. (as an aside, why do people think it is quite alright to grill a new acquaintance about their child's beginnings?). We're looking for things to say that veers away from the questions and helpe make sure such personal questions aren't asked again (unless we bring them up) but we don't want to alienate our new acquaintenances.
