[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I am the eldest of eight, six biological and four adoption. When my parents decided to adopt it was probably the most selfish decision they could have made. Four boys of which were all exposed to Crack/Cocaine. My mother has caused a great division between her biological and adopted children which happens to be very dysfunctional. She is self loathing and dishonest. Everything changed when my mother and father adopted the children. I personally would never adopt a child especially if I were able to have my own babies. There are 15 people in my family who are adopted and every last one of them has a problem. This may sound terrible but only speaking the truth. The abandonment and lack of bonding from the original mother affects the child for life. No matter who, what, when. where, how or why if you bring a child in the home of your biological children, they will be affected by you because they will be under the light, watching everything they say and do. Your family will never be the same. Just my two cents.[/quote] 10 kids? Or 8? Either way - I know a lot of successful adoptive families and adoptees - both international and from foster care. Don't let the poor experience of one person cloud your view of all adoptions. [/quote]
