It is all about the adopted child, they are given away so that they may have a better home and a better life, they are not given so that the kid will meet the needs of the adoptive parents. 
Reunion is part of adoption, it is bound to happen some time. 
One woman had her for a lifetime and now is offended!

I think the moral of the thread seems to be that an adoptee should never complain, talk about his/her feelings about the adoption or how it feels to be adopted. 
If the do they idealize their birth family, and that is a time to remind them of terrible twos, what kind of a colicky baby he was, how awful as a teenager....

It doesn't matter why children are given up for adoption - adoptive parents have needs, too, and an adoptee who disregards them so extremely (like in this case) is an asshole. Nobody said adoptee should be content all the time (what?), just that he should be considerate toward his parents.[/quote]

This.  It is part of being a family--a component of human decency.  It isn't all about the child.  It isn't all about the parents--adopted or bio. It is about taking into account how our action effect others.  This grown man is action with total disregard for the family that stood by him.  He can reach out to his bio family without callous disregard for his "real" family.[/quote]
