Everyone goes through something, everyone has something that follows them in life, adoptees are no different than others we just face different problems along the way.

I've gotta go with Josh on this one. As an adoptee, we have to face problems and emotional pitfalls that others may not have to, but then again, there are problems we might not have that others do. Life has ups and downs for everybody. And I am happy to have the chance to live it.
