that you were adopted would you be mad at you parents or thank them for doing something someone else couldn't?

why would they tell you so late... you figure you would know when you were younger

i knew a few that had open adoptions
my daughter had a few of her friends that adopted there kids out and some were as well open adoptions
.. my daughter had her son when she was 14 and some her age arent mature to take care of themselves and my daughter was.. she 25 now with 3kids..

good question, but seeing as how my grandparents raised me, I would be thankful for them, but mad at my mom

Yea the medical is hard to get around. My bio mom sent me a letter when I was like 15 telling me all of her issues...good thing, because things make more sense now.

glasses who cares.......if they are good parents and they raised you well then why should it matter real parents or not? if you love them,and they love you,then your certainly better off then being with parents who did not want you.

It depends when you tell them. My cousin was adopted and found out when she was 25. It messed her up and she had a period of drug use and scummy men. This girl before had it all, smart beautiful, funny.... It was a terrible shame. She is finally coming back to her old self, but oh the things she and her parents went through. I felt sorry for all of them.
