Adopted kids and biological kids are equal! Right?

Wow, that is so cruel. Of course they are equal!

 

Wow that's really mean :eek:
They're totally equal, your uncle's doing the right thing

 

While what your dad said is cruel and wrong it is unfortunately part of people's reasoning... I never knew anyone with adopted child however whenever adaption topic comes around everyone praise people who do it and add immediately "It would never take place of your child tho'"...

That is probably selfish human nature talking as they don't believe that adopted child would not take care of them when they got old... I find that line of thinking very disturbing but it doesn't make it non existant.

 

Your Uncle is doing the right thing but your dad seems to still hold a very oldern day view.

 

Wow... as an adopted kid myself I'm offended. My mom adopted me from China, then she adopted her own grandkid and she treats us both equally. Your uncle is doing the right thing. Someone should yell at your dad though.

 

I'm sorry, but your dad's a prick.

 

Whether I end up with a guy or a girl, I intend to adopt, and I'm sure as hell gonna treat those kids right, because adopted kids are still your kids, biology has nothing to do with how much you love the children you raise

 

I was adopted from there as well. I'm my parents' only child.

I never experienced a lot of adoption vs biological prejudice, which I'm glad for. I'm sorry your dad is that way.

 

It's the family, not the blood that matters as I always say.

I mean think about it. What if a child was unwanted and was abused by their 'real' parents, and then was later adopted by a different family who loved and cared for them? Did the 'bio' parents love them more because they had the same blood? Really blood doesn't mean shit anymore.

It's also offensive to women who have any kind of infertile or intersex condition; as it shames them and tells them they'll never be able to have a 'real' child to bond with.

Good thing your dad never adopted kids :lol:
Of course they're equal.

 

Your father's solution is that your uncle should emotionally abuse the adopted one by telling her she's not a worthy or real member of her own family?

He seems a charming man.

 

Your dad's really mean.

 

I got three things out of this:

1. Your father is a horrible person and is absolutely wrong.
2. Adopted kids deserve just as much love and attention as biological kids.
3. Your father needs to shut the hell up and quit being a horrible person.

 

I think adopting is a very noble thing to do. Kudos to your uncle for making the decision to share his love and family with someone who might not have gotten the chance otherwise!

I hate this twisted belief that adopted children aren't "real" somehow. I hope no one in my family ends up shoving this belief in my face when I eventually have a family (I fully plan on adopting).
