[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]With adoption there is no genetic link, so no matter what the kid is not going to look like you. Race is just pigment on skin. Kids do not look like their adoptive parents. No need for anyone to "have to look" like their parents. There are thin children in fat families, brown in white, tall in short etc. All depends on if you choose to make it into a problem or not[/quote] Our son looks like his dad. People who do not know about the adoption swears he looks just like his dad. The funny thing about it is that when we were provided with a picture of of his birth mom, I told my husband that he looked like the birh mom. So PP, you are wrong. I just happened that way. It was definitely unintentional. [/quote]
