Parents are those who raise, not those who knock someone up/get pregnant.

Why is that such a bad thing? Be happy. I'm adopted but was put in foster care at age 6

You know, I am a 29 year old woman who can't have kids. My husband and I think about adopting all the time, but then I read FML's like this or see sob stories on TV about kids who are adopted. You either tell the child when you feel like they can handle it and then they spend their whole lives feeling like their real parents just gave them away and blame their problems on being adopted, or you wait to tell them when they are adults and then they are pissed they didn't know growing up. How is an adoptive parent supposed to feel? How does an adoptive parent win? You know OP, maybe you should consider how the person who raised you feels and why she made her decisions...

Nothing wrong with being adopted, but I've never understood why you wouldn't tell your children.
