Cultural Identity and the Internationally Adopted Child

[BabyGirlGoddess]

why don't some adoptive families refuse to teach their internationally ( or transracially) adopted kids about their culture? don't Americanize them.

don't adopt a kid from Ethiopia and choose to raise them in a small, mainly whtie town in the middle of Utah. your love may be colorblind, but the world isn't. racism still exist. I have nothing against international/transracial adoption, but i think that if you decide to adopt from a different ethnic background, you should live in a diverse area.

I wish i was never adopted. I was originality Guatemalan then i got adopted by white people moved to small town Kansas now i have no fucking identity. Now i don't fit with anyone! Fucking thanks fuckers! When I'm around Guatemalans they stare at me because i'm over 6ft so i immediately stick out and then i don't speak Spanish so im fucked there too. I hav some white friends but most whites stereotype me because they don't know i grew up in their culture and nomore Guatemalan that their honky ass
