Hi, I stumbled across a blog you commented on called "The Improper Adoptee". I wanted to leave a comment but one can only leave a comment if you are on the team. If you are on the team, can you pass on this comment on the post about neglected adoptees that died?-- As a former Childrens Protective Services Worker, I can tell you that child abuse or neglect depends on the psychcology of the caretaker and not on the child or the relationship between the child and the caretaker. The children in your post who died did not die becsuse they were adopted but because their community failed them in not discovering what was going on or failing to act on what was known. And as a mother who gave up a child for adoption as well as raised another woman's children and two more of my own, I can say I found it easy to treat them all the same, with love and care, as it was my nature. And finally, here in my state, if both adoptee and biologicsl parent desire contact, they can and we did. My daughter was raised in a loving family, grew up to be a taller version of myself and is a successful adult mother, wife and worker. One more thing. I see you calling your biological parents your "real" parents. Your "real" parents are the folks who raised you! Your biological parents are just that, bio-parents.--Thanks
