[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]^ I also see a family with similar dynamic.

The adopted child is via a very open adoption. The child's bio parents and extended family are very involved and visit with regularity.

The other children in the family are old enough to now recognize that Larlo has an additional set of parents, grandparents AND the related attention that comes with it.

The adopted child's bio family is not unkind to the other children but it is obvious their primary care and attention is on the adopted child.

Wondering how this family dynamic will work out in the long run.

Do you have any supporting information that this dynamic "works out fine"?  Open adoptions haven't been around for very long so I'm wondering what kind of stats or peer-reviewed info you have that proves this.  [/quote]

There is no one size fits all.  It takes reasonable rational people to make it work.  My child doesn’t wonder where they came from, who they look like, etc.  we are very similar so some things are hard to tell if it’s nature, nurture or both.  How can it be a bad things if parties support each other and just join as a family?[/quote]
