We have a 4 year old from Russian - just came home.
We also have a 17 year old and a 14 year old. They were 2.5 and 2 when we got them in the early 90's.
Our 17 year old thinks about the birth Mom/Dad - and thinks about going back some day. Never doubted that we are his Mom and Dad - and we have always been open about it. Feels secure in life and is very proud of the heritage.
Our 14 year old - rarely thinks about the birth Mom/Dad. Has no burning desrie to seek out the birth Mom and Dad. Feels secure in life - and is also proud of the heritage.
I case it depends on the child, how open you are, and your ability to show them their heritage.
