[quote=Anonymous]My sibling was adopted and while I thought we had an idyllic childhood, she did not. She apparently felt like she didn't fit in (she's the same race, looks similarly, and my parents showed interest in anything she did). She is very vocal about how adoption should be illegal and how wrong it is. It was a closed adoption (birth mom's choice) and she was always told she was adopted. Her gotcha day was the day she was born. Anyways, she says she has a lot of hurt over it all and says a piece of her will forever feel "unwanted". My mom was adopted by her stepdad (who married her mom) and understands where she's coming from. The way my sister feels isn't uncommon and there's a whole anti-adoption movement now.[/quote]
