I also disagree. While I do not want my children to feel indebted or obligated to me, I do want them to realize how fortunate they are -- they live in a country with free education for all, they have a family who can provide food, clothing, non-essentials, love, laughter, and joy.
When there is a thunderstorm I tell my son how fortunate we are that we have a roof to keep us dry AND how good that God sent the rain for our garden and flowers.
The Christians of Bennett Chapel in Possum Trot, Texas felt that it was their Christian duty to adopt. That does not mean they love their children any less than someone who adopted because of infertility. And I think if you asked their children, they would say they were lucky to be adopted, rather than spending their childhoods bouncing from one foster home to another.
Luck is so much more than a winning lottery ticket. It is a blessing from God on all the parties involved.
