I was taken back by a non adoptee who wanted to argue that I could not speak for all adoptees. I was taken back. I know a lot of adoptees who would disagree that being adopted is not a miracle or a special event.

As you looked into the issues of being adopted and see adoption from a adoptees point of view you would understand where we are coming from.

I am wondering if the person actually asked the adoptee if they thought it was blessed time. when they lost a mother like by loss as in a death of a parent. Separating a mother and child is trauma.

For the majority of adoptees adoption is trauma and loss and we lose our heritage.

I would like to say that adoption is with a new family is different. we have to learn how to interact with perfect strangers. We do not even look like them.


I know for me I have to be around people who do not have to understand me but support me in my views on Adoption.
