i used to belive that all children were adopted since i was told i was adopted by my parents but no one explained what that meant. too nervous to ask my parents, i questioned the adoption thing with a friend at around 6 years old, she non-challantly said, well everyone is adopted not just you. your parents have to go to the hospital to get you and then they have to adopt you. wasn't til i was 17 that i learned i was in fact adopted although i'd realized long before, that other people just weren't.
