I constantly struggle with the same comments (as a transracial family through foster care), I like that people think about adoption, but I don't ever want my children to think people 'pity' them, or that they are lucky or that I am nice to do what I am. <BR/>I am a MOM, they are my KIDS enough said!Calico Skyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03640365330149203615noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-25155494.post-1168532447392899872007-01-11T11:20:00.000-05:002007-01-11T11:20:00.000-05:00Unbelievable.

I'm sure you're glad that's done and over with!<BR/><BR/>People really don't think before they speak - and there is a lot of ignorance in this world, especially when people are thinking about how things were "back then" or something. I know it's not the same thing exactly, but I've heard a few insensitive, ignorant remarks regarding Kayla too. <BR/><BR/>One incident I wrote up on my blog months ago happened at the library. It's a long story, but the librarian (who is in the children's section) said, "we have enough smart people in the world, we need more people like her." Referring to Kayla, who she called a "good hugger." Gee thanks lady. So I understand your frustration!Michellehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02441176684416139172noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-25155494.post-1168473685071986792007-01-10T19:01:00.000-05:002007-01-10T19:01:00.000-05:00I feel for you to have to go through that at the S...I feel for you to have to go through that at the SS office. It was probably that busy because everyone needed the ssn for taxes too. <BR/>I was glad to see that you all had a good Christmas and a Happy New Year start off. :)melvahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03861987733977140989noreply@blogger.com
