Absolutely no child owes gratitude to their parents. Parents raise their children, they are the ones who wanted the children. The children did not ask to be born or adopted into their families.
I wish i had a better answer for you. Its too bad that people think you can't have an independent thought on adoption no matter what kind of family you had. |

What I don't understand is why anybody would think a child owes their parents any kind of gratitude at all, adopted or otherwise.
Parents choose to bring children into their lives, not the other way around. |

Obviously, they don't realize that being adopted is sometimes difficult for anyone to handle, regardless of life afterward. |

I'm so glad that my parents are nothing like some of the a-parents on yahoo here. they have always treated me with respect. to answer your question though, it seems that this person was just lashing out and they failed to realize how hurtful those words are. |

It just shows me that there are a lot of bigoted people out there.
My only question is, why would someone who obviously hates adoptees want to adopt one?
It boggles my mind.
But maybe they get something out of making a child "shut up and be grateful".
It just says something about them.
That's my opinion anyway. |

Because they're saying what they feel. If we think it's right or wrong, great- but it's THEIR opinion; not yours.
In MY opinion, it's WRONG to tailor your opinions/answers just to be with the "in crowd" and not get ridiculed later.
Come on- people learn when others give honest answers... |

You don't have to read questions that upset you. Just ignore them. Some people don't know anything. You have every right to feel the way you feel. No one can tell you how to feel. |
