 i do not believe that the child will cry out for "real mummy" unless she does not feel belonging with her parents and family. also, if adoptive parents are always talking about "the birthmother" and "grieving the loss," etc., the child will come to feel there must be something missing in her life. i think parents should be sensitive to the child's feelings about adoption as they come up without trying to impose preconceived ideas of what she will think or feel.

 i would like to take the opportunity to adress two isuue discussed in the article - 1 some one els's genes - i believe that a child natural or adopted is an individual with a set of feelings , hopes and experiences and builds this up as it grows up . as parents we can provide the conduciveness for this to occur. i want my real mommy. i must mention here my experiences . i have an 18year old son i adopted as a day old baby . from the moment i first held him , that feeling of motherhood came over me and it has not left me since . when i told my son he was adopted at the age of 10 - which was a bit too late theory says , he said no and could not accept it . it took him a few months to accept it and it was a process of psychological and physical trial. but when i aksd him if he would want to know who his real mommy was he said i know its you ! he is 18 now and what he tells me is that mother who gave birth is not what matters . at the end nurture is greater than nature
