[quote=Anonymous]PP here: just wanted to add: I hear what you're saying and sometimes a kid is just a kid. We haven't done any Chinese lessons or Chinese school, or anything along those lines. I find that adoptive parents can sometimes be a little bit overboard, though they may be well-intentioned. That may be what you are feeling in your adoption group? Maybe those parents will settle down a bit as their kids get older? Also, they may have to work harder at maintaining their kids' cultural tie, since they are not Asian themselves. I'd say do whatever works for you and for your family, and don't feel badly about leaving the group if it's not a good fit. There are many ways to be a good parent, and you shouldn't feel badly if this is just not your thing! Different strokes for different folks! Good luck.[/quote]
