+197 Being adopted can't be THAT bad, so what if they are not your real parents, they love you just as much and took care of you your whole life. I don't understand why someone would get mad if they found out they are adopted, and blame the parents for not telling them earlier. amirite?

I've always found it super awesome because it means that they loved you so much when they saw you that they took you in as their own kid even though you weren't.

I like to think of it as they chose you out of all the other children, instead of getting suck with your own biological ones :-P

If I adopted a kid, I wouldn't keep it secret from them. keeping it a secret for the first xx years of their life only makes it seem like a bad thing.

Agreed. Adoption is really great. Although I think it would be important to tell your kids as soon as they're old enough to fathom it, 'cause I know I would be upset if I was adopted and had no idea until it just slipped out after I spent 15 years thinking they were my real parents.
