[quote=Anonymous]I'm adopted with a very positive experience. Absolutely recommend it being something that is always known. It seems hiding it would cause a lot of problems. Personally, I'm not a fan of "gotcha" days. The point is that adopted kids are just your kids. It feels weird to me to celebrate them differently. I don't have much of an opinion on this. I think there's been research out there on it though. I don't like changing kids names if they are old enough to know their name. I was 3 months old so changing my name was no big deal. And my middle name was derived from my foster moms name and I have always loved that. My parents never hid my story from me. They answered any questions they could. [/quote]
