Have you heard aout Adopted Child Syndrome?

I think it's true. Obviously, it doesn't happen to all adopted children, and there are child raised by their biological parents who act out as well, but many (not all) adopted children deal with identity issues, rejection issues, etc and that's on top of just trying to figure out how to be a teen. Separating a child from a bio parent is traumatizing, even to an infant. Read The Primal Wound and you'll understand.

I remember exactly what my adoptive mother said to me and my sister when her own daughter ran away from home: "This is something I would have expected from one of you. Adopted children do things like this." It set in motion my distancing myself from the woman I considered my mother. The only mother I had known. There was no going back to the way things were after that. I could probably list a number of things my sister and I endured as adopted children but in all honesty she wasn't that great to her own children either.

I think that Adopted child syndrome is another bull created by psychologists. There are quite a number of children who have anti-social behaviour such as lying, stealing, defiance of authority and acts of violence. I teach 11-16 year old boys and there are a few pupils with anti social problems. We had some of our pupils who were adopted in the past, but the majority of them are not.

A child from birth is innocent, it is the care of the families and the culture of the societies that shapes their personalities and made that who they are. Creating a whole new "scientific" term to class these kids is... unfair for them. If there are no unwanted pregnancies this will not ever happen, sometimes societies should blame themselves on what we have become and what negatives impacts have they left for the following generations.
