Adoption on Christian Families

Paper Summary:

The paper examines the affects and outcomes of adoption in a Christian family. Three views that are discussed are the views from the person who was adopted, the siblings in the adopted family, and the parents in the adopted family.

From the Paper:

"The view of the person who was adopted is not one that this interviewer expected. From the interviews conducted for this research paper, it appears that the adopted child does not give much thought to actually being adopted. The two people interviewed were both under one year old when they went to live with their Christian families. The interviewees expressed the fact that they did not feel like any of their siblings treated or had a different attitude toward them because they were adopted. Also, both adopted interviewees only thought that their parents treated them differently in a way that made them feel extra special about being in the family. When asked what obstacles each had to overcome (because they are from a race different than the adopted family) they both said racial prejudices were an obstacle."
