[quote=Anonymous]45 year old adoptee here. I was adopted at birth and really knew little  about my bio mom other than that she was young. I have always known I was adopted. I don't think my mom ever sugar coat it, but what she did tell me was that she picked me. She could have adopted any kid, but I was chosen.  She worked really hard and long to find and get me. So, after that, who really cared what my bio mom thought. She may not of wanted a kid, but darn my mom wanted me more. The love in my home was stable and fierce and still is. People talk about adopted  kids having abandonment issues, I am the opposite. I have always felt very secure in who my mamma is. I had a great childhood too and I am still very close to my mom. I have also met my bio mom, we looked for and  found each other out of curiosity. She is a neat lady and she fancies her bio grandchild, but my mamma is still mamma.

The fact is, it is darn easy to make a kid.  Way too hard to adopt one. An adopted child is a chosen one. Can't be more special than that.[/quote]
