It depends on their age. If they are very young they'll get the simple "from my tummy" (or if it is one of my future children who will be adopted "from a woman's tummy") answer. If they are old enough to understand more I'll tell them more. I will always be honest with them. I think it is a mistake to tell kids things like "the stork" or "the cabbage patch". I plan on explaining things like adoption and surrogacy to my children when they are old enough to understand because I want those to be a normal part of life for them and not something strange and confusing.
