[quote=Anonymous]Yes. Adopted children are treated differently, at least I was and still am. My biological Uncle and his wife adopted me and my two sisters and brother are my cousins. My adopted dad beat my mother, and because I look like him or that side of the family I was brought up with shame because my bio uncle beat my mom. I am 42 years old now and my biological uncle died when I was 32. I can give you a lot of examples how I am treated differently. I have no one to go to or I get rejection and yelled at. I was kicked out of the house at 17, had to join the navy as I had no where to go... The only family I have is my brother (cousin) as he understands and stuck up for me and he relates to the paternal side of the family. Now he moved to another state. I am treated like I don't exist to my sisters (cousin) and my mom, (aunt). I've been alone all my life, spent countless birthdays alone, never get invited to anything and when I reach out for my mom's love I am rejected. My sisters and bother however have a very close and loving relationship which I wish I had. At 42 I've started to see how futile wanting love is.[/quote]
