[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]In their health family histories, my parents experienced alcoholism on the paternal side (my grandparents) and depression on the maternal side (my grandmother and aunt). They still chose to birth 3 children. One is an alcoholic and one is bipolar. Thank goodness I escaped both. Putting kids together piece by piece is not possible. I have read thousands of posts on DCUM where (bio) children were created and raised without a second thought to the family health history. That's irresponsible. If health histories are as important as posters say, then they are important in the creation of bio children as well as adoptive children. Yet bio parents seem to disregard examples like alcoholic grandparents or their 2 aunts' bipolar disorder. Weird. [/quote] What exactly is your point? What reaction are you looking for? Your post is really weird.[/quote] NP here. I think PP is trying to say that prospective adoptive families worry too much about health histories of their potential adopted children, especially compared to families who have children the traditional way- many/most disregard what’s in their own health history and have children with little thought to the consequences and impact on those kids.
