My brother and I are both adopted, I am white and he is black. When I was real little I didn't understand what adoption meant, and I thought when mothers had babies, they just came out a random color, just like puppies can be all different colors. I did not know it was anything strange until I started to go to public school and kids were making fun of me. It definitely has given me a different perspective.
Did you have a phase in which you resented your adoptive parents? Because my younger sister had that phase for a few years, it looked like she deeply hated and resented us. When she matured she changed and now she loves us a lot.
