A child does not need a title. No matter what your background or what lead you to adoption, adoption is merely the process... it is not a title for your child. I agree ALL children are biological from somewhere. To have to title children as to "biological" or "adopted" is ridiculous. To lable children in this way could potentially lead to them "feeling different" about who they are.
We dealt with infertility along our path and I still feel EVERY pregnancy and birth is a celebration!!!
