[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I agree with this (the adoptive parent and adult adoptee here). My name was given to me by the adoption agency- it doesn't really mean anything to me. I do know my last name really was my birth father's last name, but in Korea, this is a VERY common name (there are only a handful of Korean last names) so it's not like it uniquely identifies me as part of their family. I never felt a loss being adopted. [/quote] this child is not from Korea, and she most likely did not receive her name from the agency or the orphanage. You do not know her story. Every baby does not come to them from the maternity ward Either way, this post must be a troll. Adoptive parents are educated and receive counseling so they know what they get themselves in for. Foreign adoption of an older child is more complex And Oksana means 'Praise be to God', blessed, welcoming[/quote]
