Adoptees...did you like or dislike the people that adopted you?

Question

and why?

Answer 1

Why are you thinking about adopting, it is a very rewarding thing to do, and if it doesn't work it the nice thing about it is they can find and even better home.

Answer 2

no i did not like my adoptive parents,and more importantly they did not like me.  they made it real hard for me as a youngster and unfortunately im still dealing with it today.  they are no longer living so all i have are the terrible memories of my childhood and youth.  ive struggled  with forgiving them but im still uncomfortable with the troubles i have today.  i would so like to let go of all that and find happiness.

Answer 3

i adore my adoptive parents i would litteraly kill for them

Answer 4

I've starred your question - which is quite thought provoking. I'm interested to see what sort of replies you get.

You know, you could technically ask the same question regarding any parents, adoptive or biological. You will get mixed answers, regardless of whether the parent is a biological or adoptive one.  

Think about all the children abused by their natural fathers...I' sure they disliked them.  Or the children left to fend for themselves because their bio parent is an alcoholic or a gambler etc....how about the homes where children witnessed violence?  

There will always be people who didn't like their parents very much for a variety of reasons - some of them even quite minor... Bio or adopted...we don't choose our parents.

Answer 5

i dislike them.

=/

i know its mean to say,

but they lied to me for the first nine years of my life.

i found out i was adopted by seeing my birth last name on some sheet of paper,

so i asked my adoptive parents about it,

and they told me that i was adopted,

and that they didnt plan on tell me.

and my adoptive mom i always like,

"im your mother!"

but she didnt give birth to me,

so i dont consider her to be my mother,

but someone who raised me.

so yeah.

=/

i bet this is gonna get thumbs down.

aha

Answer 6

The ppl that adopted me are my life. My adopted father-pappy-dies 2 yrs ago and it broke my heart, he was my best friend, my father, and my role model. My adopted mother worked very hard to provide for pappy and myself, pappy couldn't work due to a heart condition, and I love them very much. I have never seen them as anything but my parents

Answer 7

I have a wonderful family and I love and like my parents.  My mother is one of my best friends and I am a daddy's girl.  A better set of parents could not of been chosen for me.  Like any family we had our fights, but they were agruements of out love.

If I can be honest, I am not fond of my Biological Parents.  The greatest gift they ever gave me and the only gift they gave me was putting me up for adoption.  I am not angry or spitful at them, but they are just not the kind of people I would associate with, I do care for them, but I do not view them as my parents at all.

Part of the reason could be because I have such a great family and a wonderful support system, so yes I like the people who adopted me.

Answer 9

I am not adopted either, but my boyfriend is. And I am pretty sure he likes them, but I feel that they take advantage of him. His adoptive parents are white and they adopted 4 black kids. They pretty much treat them all like slaves. The mom is a little on the pyscho side along with the dad and he admits it but other than all that I think he likes them.

Answer 10

I love them with all my heart.

I dislike the fact that my adoptive Dad died when I was just a child

I've felt even closer to my adoptive Mum since searching and finding my natural mother - because she was incredibly supportive and not in the least bit threatened.   Both my Moms are super-cool.  The best.

Answer 11

I was adopted from korea when I was very young. I have no recollection of my biological parents. I was adopted by caucasian parents but to me they are my real parents.

They are the most supportive and loving people I know. Everyday I am grateful that I was adopted by them and that I became part of their family who are now my own.

The fact that I am korean ethnically has never changed the family dynamics. I love them more than anything else in the world.

I think it proves that you don't have to be tied by blood to be family. :)

Answer 12

I love them, they are my parents. Of course there are annoying things that they do, but that's to be expected...they are human after all.

I also like the people that relinquished me for adoption, but again, they're human too...
