[QUOTE="Nomad, post: 761485, member: 4152"] Yes, the forum is not as active as it once was. But when it was, there was a disproportionate number of parents with adopted kids. It wasn’t always obvious at first. As the parent often didn’t mention it. But then it would slip out in conversation. It might of been 50/50 which statistically is noticeably strange. One day I asked my daughter’s psychiatrist a poignant question. Keep in mind , she has become a nationally recognized top child psychiatrist.I simply asked “ when you think of your kids in total, do you have at least a slightly disproportionate high number of kids that were adopted and are those kids at least a little sicker (for lack if a better way of putting it)?” Omg. She was silent then her eyes got big. Then she blurted out rather loudly YES! She had never stop to think about it. My heart goes out as well to that mom whose children didn’t show up to her funeral. Our daughter has purposely missed important big family events. Yet…she will show up to big events of friend’s. My heart goes out to you Busy. To all of us. [/QUOTE]
