[quote=Anonymous]Just to completely throw a wrench in things, I am genetically related to both of my parents. My brother is adopted. He looks very similar to both of my parents – in fact he could be a mixture of both of their genes. He has struggled with feeling discarded by his birth family. He recommended that I use donor egg rather than adopt, thinking it might be easier on the child. I'm not "voting" against adoption at all -- I'm just saying it's very hard to know how any individual child is going to feel about the way he or she came into a family. Your child won't be you, of course, so he or she will likely feel differently about it all than you would. If YOU would be more comfortable adopting than using DE, then I think you should adopt. But I think it's an iffy game to guess which would make your child more comfortable. So hard to know.[/quote]
