Would you let your adopted son and daughter fell in love and get married?

Question

If they have no blood relations, is that still sick?

Answer 1

Well, it would be mentally damaging and socially inacceptable to have the children find out that they are related just by family name. It would still be considered incest, and I am sure that it is illegal in most states. I don't think you should let that happen though, because of the social pressure that the kids would sustain would just be too great, and then it would probably come back to haunt you because you are their legal guardian, and so on...However, the answer is no I wouldn't, and yes it's still SICK!

Answer 2

Not before using a grammar aid.

Answer 3

i would say no. under the circumstance that they grew up together as brother and sister it just seems wrong

Answer 4

I wont because it will look bad in the society and even they are not related in blood, still they're in the same family. but if they really love each other, i may allow them but they should have different room or i will seperate them because it looks, my house might become a motel for them @_@

Answer 5

I personally wouldn't. Granted there is no blood relation, but they are still brother and sister. If they are raised their whole lives like that. I really couldn't let them do that. To me, its still wrong, because they were raised to be brother and sister, not lovers.

Answer 6

Uh - yeah, that's sick.  I'm adopted and I would NEVER look at my brothers that way!!!  They are my BROTHERS and if your children are falling in love, then you haven't done a very good job of raising them.  Sicko.

Answer 7

That is no bright side because then the adopted child isn't allowed to acknowledge their biological root.

Answer 8

no, though they are not biologically related but socially recognised relations are to be accepted to avoid degradations of human relations.

Answer 9

no its not sick they are not kin and who better else to marry than a life long freind.

Answer 10

personally i think it would be weird because they grew up together, but you cant help who you fall in love with right!!

Answer 11

i am not sure that is legal .. yeah they have no blood ties.. but arent you forgetting something.. when you adopt they become your children.. and a sister or brother to your biological children in the eyes of the law.. what make them your child.. is it having them .. or is it loving them??

Answer 12

Hm, I am not sure. It would depend on how long they were brother and sister ( a few months? A year? 15 years?). It happens a lot with step-siblings. I think I would have to analyze how they grew up and if there was ever a "brother and sister vibe" going on.

If they were adopted young and raised together for 10 years or more, I think it's a little gross. But hey, you can't choose who you fall in love with. And be glad that if they conceive... it's not incest and there are not risks of birth defects.

Answer 13

Of course Yeah! bcoz everybody has a right to love...............

Answer 14

IT REALLY DEPENDS. How Long have they know each other? 6 months? 12 years? At what age did they meet? 4? 17? exaclty

Answer 15

Umm....no.

Answer 16

i think your looking for the jerry springer show.

Answer 17

First they wouldn’t be able to get married because they would legally be siblings.  No I don’t think its ok at all even more that they grew up together and are siblings even if not genetic.  Like there aren’t enough fish in the sea.

Answer 18

If they are fully adopted, they are legal siblings, and in most states they would not be able to marry.

Answer 19

I would think they were sure lazy as not to go out in the world and find a mate.

Answer 20

Look, Woody Allen has married his adopted daughter... This is much worse, and still he get away with it...

Answer 21

I would not let them do that. Since he is your adopted son he is legally her brother. I am pretty sure there is a law out that somewhere prohibiting people from doing that.

Answer 22

they arnt really relatied but i dont really like the idea... it kinda creeps me out.lol..but its not really wrong

Answer 23

I would say it's ok because they are not blood related. But then when you think about it, It's kind of not right. It is their choice. But yeah.. GROSS.

Answer 24

Legally, they ARE brother and sister.  It is not only sick, it's against the law.

Answer 25

well, i guess it was alright for the Brady Bunch, but I'd still think it's weird.

Answer 26

Hey, at least they know each other

Answer 27

Hmm that is a bit wierd...I am not sure if that constitues as incest.  I don't think I could handle that.  Ask a priest, pastor, or whatever your religious preferance you are what they think...

Answer 28

What, can you check your grammar next time please?

No, that is so wrong.

Answer 29

Wow, that is a hard question!   Technically, there is no reason for them to avoid marriage.  The main reason that it's not acceptable for family members to marry is that they have a greater chance of passing down familial diseases and conditions to their children.   This would not be a risk factor if adopted siblings got married.

On the other hand, if your adopted children are raised in the same house as siblings, I don't think it would be appropriate to permit or encourage sexual attraction between them.  Certainly they can love each other, as any brother and sister would.  But it shouldn't go beyond that.

Answer 30

When people ask "So.. How did you meet?"

answering with well "He/she's my brother/sister"

Not such a great thing to have to tell people.

Answer 31

technically there not family and there is nothing wrong it it.  Sure its a little weird but different genes nothing wrong with it & if their happy who cares!
