Since I haven't adopted yet I really have no business commenting on this, but my two cents:
This is such a complex issue that you can't use terms like "better" or "worse". That is too simplified.
Of course the adopted child is better off in many ways and worse off in many ways also, so the sum of it hopefully is that it's good for the adoptee and that he or she is being loved and cared for.
Feeling guilt or trying to punish yourself isn't going to help anyone, so just stop!
