I think it's all about who raises the child. Biology or not. I hate my biological mother (got her out of my life when I was 8 years old). My father remarried a wonderful woman who is, in every sense of the word, my mother.

I can identify with the angry adoptees. Most of what I have read - they have had horrible lives with horrible people acting as their parents. Adoption just adds to their anguish. Why would someone go through all of this only to abuse and/or neglect a child? I don't know but it does happen and that's why there are people who are adoptees and angry. I challenge anyone to show me an angry adoptee who posts, my adoptive parents were wonderful, treated me like a king, loved me, provided for me but I hate them anyway because they stole me from my real family. The stories are usually horrific tales of abuse and neglect and questions of was I really better off with these people?

Just my 2 cents.

Brandy - you are amazing my friend
