[quote=Anonymous]Adoptee/adoptive parent here again. Forgot to add that we also have a child by birth and you can tell that he's mixed and she's 100% Korean. People have commented on how much more Asian she looks than he, but no one has ever deduced that she was adopted. Also, this brings up a question I've been thinking about for a long time. For those of us who have "different" situations (children with special needs, adopted children, gay/lesbian families, etc- anything that's not the "typical" family), what sort of burden/responsibility do we have to be ambassadors for our families? Is it our responsibility to educate the people we meet about adoption? Autism? Or do we enjoy the same right to privacy that typical families have?[/quote]
