How do adoptive parents know when their adopted child is dealing with normal childhood development issues or one that's common to adopted kids? Parents who adopt must educate themselves and learn about the unique issues of adoption so they can help their children thrive in the family, in social relationships and in school.

  • I'm adopted and found this video quite interesting. The only part I'm against on is that you shouldn't be telling your adoptive child the whole story when they are still young. I mean, I got told that I was adopted at the age of 7 and at first, who would expect me to understand? As I grew older I was more curious and that is when my parents told me the precise story.

    You have to give your adoptive child some time, treat you adoptive child as if it were your own biological child.

  • @CPSSucks I'm adopted and I never would kill any of my relatives. Despite the fact that some are total embarrassments. :P

    Also umm I feel normal, and I really have no questions. No grief at all, I love my mom. :P Also wtf? We aren't freaks >.> being adopted it's like I'm female, it's just a fact, there isn't anything that makes me different. I really wish they had a kid that was adopted talk instead of just assuming things. >.>

  • Very Helpful Information!!! - Thank you!
