[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Were you adopted transracially? Did you adopt transracially? Do you think adoptive parents today are learning from the experience of earlier generations or repeating some of their mistakes?[/quote] OP here. Yes, I was adopted transracially and internationally. My own daughter's adoption is half-transracial, as she was adopted from the same country I came from, so she and I are the same race and ethnicity. My husband is Causcian though, hence the half-transracial. It seems a lot of parents are learning from previous mistakes- thinking that love is enough and not being as culturally sensitive. On the other hand, some parents, in my opinion, can go overboard and make adoption the Big Thing hanging over their child, as if being adopted is the most interesting thing about a kid.[/quote]
