Biological and Adopted Children | Paul David Tripp

Your adopted child is different from your biological child, so the way in which you raise them will need to be different. Identity and belonging are two conversations that parents need to start with their adopted kids.

Excuse me, I am adopted...and what you are stating is BALDERDASH for many! I take great offense to your generalization. As an adopted person - and having a "natural" sibling in the middle and an adopted sister- 4 yrs my junior. What you are saying is ONLY your perspective. OUR parents loved us equally. Our parents were open and honest with us from day one. I was adopted at 6 days, and my sister - maybe at 7 months...What would we recall? I am so sick of people " creating theories"....thinking " we are different." Let those of us- who have had great adopted lives - not be a part of your statistic...because- we were NOT ANY DIFFERENT than the natural child. Stop trying to put us all in one category- as it is so far off from reality! People like you - make me sick. To those who faced the hell of " giving us up" - We love you for it!

I always felt like I didn't belong in my family, I was raised by a single parent Dad who had more children when I became a teen, he didnt treat me or my children the same as his later offspring, I did a DNA ancestry brought for me as a gift and discovered that we weren't related biologically. I was so shocked. I always told my Mother on multiple occasions that I did not fit in and that I was not treated the same, it answered so many questions. My Dad who raised me had no idea he was raising another mans child, so I know genetics play a part in bonding.

Am sorry but what you are just posted is pure nonsense! We love him like one of ours and there are no difference between adopted as own child!

I know many people disagree with his message, however to be honest, much of what he is saying is quite accurate. As someone who was virtually abandoned by my own mother at the age of 20, I underwent an ENORMOUS identity crisis. I am in hopes of finding a second, substitute mother and becoming adopted, and even in the event that I do get adopted, I will still have a lot of identity issues, as this will not be my biological mother nor my biological family.

I agree it is because of sin we have orphans. However Jesus adopted us into his family therefore as believers we have the understanding that we are now.part of.the blood line of christ. Therefore your children and adopted children have the same blood line in Jesus.

Identity is only based on enviromental experience

Good video and message.

It gets so bad when they need my signature to close an estate they will try to change facts about where people were adopted and genetics tests over future success of someone they have hated as a scapegoat my entire life. I have people trying to exploit me right now who are trying to switch my ex brother rob Cardwell’s adoption in 1973 with mine in 1975 and he is like a five year old girl. He waits until someone says his name like 5he women. Then they get political now that women have even paid paid off that have had intercoursecwith him thinking he was a certain party or church goer and then he tries to gaslight children by threatening them into silence and I have ex friends and ex coworkers who don’t post all text and haven’t since 2019 after divorce when they went to a concert together and were seen together in one spot mire than once calling and texting ex mates when they had already been paid off before since 1987. Some of them anyway.

The time he said about "GOD" I knew this video would be bullshit
