Adoption, Fostering and tracing your family

[Boy_Wonder06]

Hello, i was wondering how many people on here have either been adopted or fostered... I know it's very personal and osme people don't like talking about it, but ive been through it all and i know what its like so if you wanna talk about it im here, and if you wanna post any comments please do....

Ps do you think adopted/fostered children are loved any less?
and do you have any issues with adoption and fostering.

I wasen't adopted, but my Mom was.

It was tough for her, but I think it's made her a stronger person. She had the chance to meet her biological mother a few years back.

[Boy_Wonder06]

did she meet her or not???

[Brianna.]

Yeah. Her mom lived in the same state as us, so my mom drove down there and met her. I don't know if they still talk, but they got along quite nice.

hey,
I was adopted from Korea when I was 3months old. I was adopted by Belgian parents. I don't think for a minute that adopted children are less loved, on the contrary, they are perhaps even more loved because if you think about it, adoptive parents adopt their children because they REALLY want these kids that perhaps nature couldn't give them. Most of the time, normal biological kids come to life because their parents didn't use their condom right, or because they drank too much that night... very often it's an "accident" even if after knowing they're pregnant they really do want this child. Being adopted is something very beautiful. Of course, we don't all have the chance to fall into a loving family... no one choses their family or parents, that's for sure.
I did some research when I was 15 because I was dying to know why I was abandonned and what my biological mother looked like physically. I went all the way to Korea to find her but when I got information on her, I found out she never tried looking for me in any way and she was married with 3 kids!! That really pissed me off (don't ask me why) so I gave up and never wanted to think about it again. I love my parents, my adoptive parents, my REAL parents because I think of all the things they've done for me the past 22 years of my life... they gave me a second chance to live, they loved me more than I could have imagined.
Anyway, I haevn't spoken about this in a long time and it's always nice to know others are in the same situation as you are. Are you having problems coping with your adoption? What's your story? I would love to talk about it with you.
Take care.

Im not adopted ( that i no of ) and i dont think i no anyone that is though.

I think adopted or fostered children are possibly loved just as much or more because the parents choose

my boyfriend was adopted by his parents when he was just a newborn. It was a teen mom who gave him up to have a better life, and he couldn't have been adotped by any better parents. His folks love him to death, just as much as if he was biologically theirs.

He has no desire to meet his birth mom, because his adopted mother is his mom.

Has she had children with each father?

And was he born drug addicted?

[cl0ud]

well my mother i think was either a muslim or hindu and she had sex with my dad without telling her family, if she was found to have a baby without being married she would have brought dishonour on her family, so gave birth to me and had me adopted by my adoptive parents. at least thats the kind of jist of it. now she lives in africa i think....she ran away from her family....

shes got another kid whos about 3 or 4.
think shes got a 16 year old girl aswel.
she was allowd to keep them for some reason though.
no he wasn't born a drug addict, she started with the drugs after he was born, he was taken off her when he was 14 months. when she was pregnant again i think, her daughter is wierd though.
