Yeah, this isn't too original except for the fact that it is written from a adopted child's viewpoint. I was adopted when I was 2 days old, so I really don't remember my mother. People usually associate emotional problems with me being adopted. I really don't have emotional problems though except for maybe an unhealthy level of rebelliousness and anger. You'd think my mother would have them, but not really. Most of her problems are hereditary.
I've heard that women who give children up for adoption suffer more damage than those who abort, unfortunately those findings that I heard came from the same group that claims 1 in 3 women are raped. When in actuality it is 1 in 8 women who experience a sexual encounter of some sort where they do not consent. So I don't trust finding from women's right groups that lie to me. My mother really doesn't have emotional problems. She has depression but it is triggered from her parents divorce. The drinking, weight problems and a couple of other things are all hereditary.
People also believe that I must have emotional problems. I really don't. I have probably an unhealthy level of rebelliosness and anger, but that stems from multiple problems associated with my family, and my strong dislike of my parents (the word I am looking for escapes me.) So really, I have no emotional damage and my only problem is that my life is like a scratched record and it jumps a lot.
Being adopted makes me pretty pro-life but I understand abortion for rape, incest and danger to mother. Besides that I'm not too accepting of most arguments, yet that isn't the point of this blog. The point is that adopted children don't always have emotional problems and neither do their parents, at least in my case. So always be wary of "scientific" findings.
Stay tuned for more stuff on adoption from me.

Well you could always use such attributes allocated to you as an advantage. For example, just cut the check out line and be like, "It's okay, I'm adopted."

lol, ill try that next time im in a hurry.
"excuse me, i need in. yeah, emotionally damaged, could kill you all."
I don't believe that all adopted children have emotional problems. I mean sure, some do, but my sister is an adopted child and she has a healthy emotional state. Much healthier than my emotional state, infact, and I am not adopted.
