Do you love those adopted children as your own?

i have never adopted a child, but i am adopted and i can honestly say that i know my parents love me just as much as my brother and sister. i have never been treated differant from anyone in the family. they tell me how special i am because i was hand picked by god to belong to them. i have 2 daughters of my own, but if i did adopt, i know i would love that child just as much. my mom made me a gift one time that said... not flesh of my flesh, nor bone of my bone but still miracuously my own. never forget for a single minute, you didnt grow under my heart, but in it. i think that sums it up. thanks for this discussion

I have no idea about adopted children. But yes like u have said all children are adorable and lovable. So if a couple knows they cannot have a child and they go in for adoption m sure they wud love the kid as their own blood. With time they might tell and then it would be upto the child to decide what to do. Infact i kind of know of a couple who have adopted twin girls. they are lvely and growing up well. their love and affection does not show any sign of them having adopted the child. Cases may differ. Incase someone adopts a child and then have their own then canot say much. But i m sure people who adopt kids do it out of love and affection and coz they want to do adopt a child and wud surely love them as their own.
