[quote=Anonymous]Wow, I'm surprised at all these answers suggesting never to tell. I'm an adult adoptee and while I can only guess how I would feel to learn something like this, I probably would be more pissed that my parents never told me. I agree that it's inappropriate to tell a child this, but as an adult, I think I have the right to ALL of my history, no matter how painful that is. OP, I do agree that you should not tell anyone other than your child this. Even if the story was more typical, an adopted child has the right to share or not share with anyone else. Don't take that away from him or her. I would suggest you seek some adoption counseling to guide you whether you tell your child this and if you do tell, when and how. Good luck![/quote]
