How do non-adopted children feel toward their biological parents? I imagine most love them, but that apart from that the way they feel about them differs from day to day and person to person. It's the same with adoptees.
We are, in fact, fully human. |

My children love me. Well, one "hates" me if he doesn't get his way, but that is a six year old for you.
There love for me does not signify any less feelings for their First mom either. |

A majority of individuals including myself have nothing but love for their adoptive parents.
However, for myself although my biological parents and family choose not to have a relationship with me and put me down (has been a difficult reunion) but deep down I do love them all.
My biological parents gave me the gift of life, my adoptive parents gave me also the gift of life. |

Depends on the individual - I guess they aren't all welcoming as my aunt was forced by my grandmother to give up a daughter at 16 - My aunt is now 53 I think and has tried to contact her daughter but she wants nothing to do with her - Which is sad because I always wonder if I've ever actually run into her and never really knew it. |

I imagine it has to do with their experiences growing up. Most of them think of their aparents in much the same way as a person would think of their nparents, had they been kept. People who were abused by their aparents, or who's were rejected a second time, are going to have some serious dissatisfaction with them. That's a normal reaction. I mean, there are children who are abused/abandoned by their biological parents, and they're left to deal with the emotional fall-out. Why is it hard to understand that some adoptees have these feelings, especially after experiencing abandonment so early in life?
Personally, my aparents are the only people who I associate with being my parents. Recently, I've become aware that I probably don't have as strong of an emotional attachment to them as others have to their parents. That's not a choice I've made, that's just how it ended up. (I.E. I'd change that if I could.)
I've met my birth mother, and while it dredges up some really intense emotions, she's just a stranger who should have been my mother. That's just how I feel; don't judge unless you've been there. |

I was relinquished for adoption as soon as my umbilical cord was cut, and I was placed with my AP's before I was even 2 months old.
However my very first memory, under 2 years old, involves thinking of my Amom as "that lady." She was a great mom, she was the only mom I had ever known, I'm sure I called her Mommy, I am sure that she was the person I most trusted, but even I cannot explain why I didn't think of her as such. |

I am greatful for being adopted. I always knew I was so it wasn't suddenly sprung on me. I've always had contact with my biological mother, and I understand she couldn't have cared for me.
My Mum and Dad (addoptive) are really great people and hve given me the best opportunities in life and I can see where my life is heading today (I'm starting Uni this yer) compared to what it would have been like if I wasn't addopted.
I also love my biological mum, and don't hold any resentment at all, and am glad that I was allowed to have contact with her thoughout my life, to me she is like an aunty.
As I child I used it against Mum and Dad alot, like when they would tell me to do something I would say 'you can't tel me what to do, your not my rel parents' but I think any child would, coz children seem to say what they think would hurt the most.
I know that other poeple don't feel the same way, they feel rejected and things but I am really greatful for the good lifeI was given |

I love my mom, yet I have this awkward relationship with my father. Of course he is a drunk so I guess anyone would feel the same way as I do. My parents are more out of touch with society, they are much older than me and could be my grandparents, but I don't let that stop me from loving them. They are great.

It depends. If it's a lucky situation it feels like they are your own family. I wasn't officially adopted, but after my mom died (when I was ten) I was "fostered" by a family friend, her husband, and their four sons. I felt like they were my own and felt incredibly comfortable. |

For me they are my parents. I feel all the love, respect and admiration that a child would feel for their natural parents. |

Would you think each situation is different? Is there really a "normal" condition that could be used as an example?
I'm not trying to be cute answering your question with a question.
I'm from the old school. We used to pretend we were cool by putting peanuts in our coke and asking questions like, "Why is an apple?"
Some of us came from farm's that still had "Out House's" !!!!!!!!! (1950"s)
PHEW !!! |

I never once felt like they were my "real" parents. I felt like they were just people who were raising me. I never felt a real connection or bond. |

Usually not much different from what non-adopted kids feel for their bio parents. I would hope, anyway.
Me?
They're my PARENTS. Duh. |

Me ? I absolutely idolise my adoptive parents. My Mum passed away quite a few years ago now and I miss her so much. Dad is alive but is now a very old man. I couldn't have wished for better parents that have given their wonderful concept of life to my adopted brother and myself.
God Bless their cotton socks. |

How do ANY children feel about their parents? It varies from person to person, and at certain developmental stages varies from day to day. Feelings don't become uniform just because someone is adopted.
Children are certainly capable of loving their adoptive parents, just as they're capable of loving their biological parents. Children are capable of loving both sets of parents at once. Love doesn't exist in limited quantities. |

they feel as though you are not there real parents and you never will be and sometimes if you keep telling them things they not going to want to hear it because they are adopt and they dont like for noone to yell at them and dont help them with things because they been through so much and rough times because i have a lot of classmates in my class like that so try not to put to much pressure on them because so run away |

my boyfriend and his brother were adopted. my bf sees his adoptive parents as his real parents and so does the other brother. the borther sought out to find his real parents and has a relationship with them and his adoptive parents while my bf sees his adoptive parents as his parents. so long as you show them love and care, they will love you back for it |

uh huh

depends on the child.most children respect and love them,but the love will never be like between parents and their blood child.because the child will always have a question of what would it be like 2 have blood parents |
