Adoption does present a dilemma.
And the successful resolution of that dilemma is what determines the success of every adoptive placement. Each time somebody new finds out, they sound like they think there is something wrong about being adopted. It makes me feel a little funny. Sometimes I think they are going to say something bad about it. She sounded like she felt bad about it.
