[quote=Anonymous]Adoption is not trauma. Trauma (e.g., death of, or neglect or abuse by, a parent) usually precedes adoption. Adoption--when it works well--is the child getting a second chance to grow into adulthood within a loving family headed up by healthy parents. I am not saying it is not traumatic for a developing human to have to start over with a new family, but the adoptive family did not cause the trauma. They are part of the solution.[/quote]
