I totally agree and I was also considering writing about this topic. I had a very close friend for a reallyyy long time who I used to be with allll the time. But as we got into middle school and especially high school we have become very different people and we don't really have much in common at all. We both went our separate ways and this showed me that no matter what you might think, outside of your family you never can know for sure what friends will always be around.
To Caylin:
I agree too Cayy... even if we both do have mental disabilities. I think that the points you brought up about both topics were accurate. Specifically the first one made me think of all the times in movies and books when the child feels responsible for their parents' actions. They feel as though it is their fault that their parent drinks or smokes or has a bad temper. But I completely agree that no matter what it is never the child's fault. A parent's job is to guide their child/children for their first eighteen years teaching them what to do and what not to do. It is solely the job of the parents to set a good example and if they fail to do so that can never be blamed on the child.
To Margy:
I agree one hundred percent! When a child is adopted they are adopted in an attempt to make them one of the family. Of course they would be treated by their foster parents just as a biological child would be treated. I know someone who was adopted too and he is treated just the same as I am. He has other brothers and sisters who were adopted too and they are all treated so equally and just like any other family that at first I never even knew he was adopted. I believe that in the majority of families with adopted children, the kids are treated just like anyone else because if the parents did not want it to be that way, why would they have been adopted in the first place?
