[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Three adopted kids, different race so yes they knew from day one they were adopted. We did “family day” to celebrate the day they joined the family. Every year they choose a day trip or activity and a meal and whole family takes day off and joins. They like it, it makes them feel special and they get to enjoy experiences together. Their given birth names are their middle names. They are from a different country, so we have learned cuisine, culture, some language, and joined friends and groups with others from that country. We found it really helpful to have post adoption counselors and support groups throughout entire childhood. [/quote] I find it very interesting that you are NOT an adoptee but you felt it was your place to respond to a post asking adoptees their opinions about these things. Why do you think it was okay to change your children's names? That's all they were able to carry with them from their original families and you thought it was okay to push that aside and make them middle names!?[/quote] They are the parents, they have those rights. [/quote] Parents have legal right to mistreat their children, to a large extent. [/quote]
