[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Another adult adoptee who hates the idea that adopted kids have emotional issues. I went to a therapist as a teenager after being in an abusive relationship. My therapist kept trying to insist my issues were because i was adopted. I calmly stood up and said "no,I've told you several times my ex was emotionally abusive on a daily basis and sexually assaulted me several times. Can you please let me know who i should speak to about this because clearly you are not listening to a word i say" I've never seen someone stumbe and try to recover so quickly [/quote] This is a really good point. Anything minor is blamed on adoption. Its sad as some parents take that belief and treat the kids that way. My kids are my kids regardless of how they joined our family. Its an easy scapegoat for many.[/quote]
