If you could choose?

If you could choose, would the family that you were born with be the family that you would willingly pick for yourself?

Update:

I'm adopted as well, so of course I figured that into the equation.Try not to be so anal and just have some fun answering the question -- or ignore it if you're not interested!

    Status quo. I may dislike them some times, but I love them and couldn't live without them.

    I am a computer teacher, and my institutions head’s daughter was adopted, she is now in her 19teens, the father & mother are Indians, and the child is South African. But she hasn’t any sign of a South African. OK

    Now she falls in love with an aristocratic Indian Boy (not me!!- I love her badly, no romance) . Her father take the risk and met boys father for this relationship become a marriage, but they didn’t agree.. Hum..!!

    Actually adopted f & m loves the girl , she is also. But in teenage or (below 24 ) they (all the boy and girl) wand’s some thing and need some thing ( Oh… I don’t mean sex) in this situation the girl didn’t care her parent. (Oh it is a long story)

    If in this case the parents are just a part of this drama, the teenager not bothers about, if parents are ordinal or not! All cases are depends upon circumstances. Your question is very simple but answer is difficult. U don’t think about ur adoption. World is a big play ground, and we are the players, we must play our roll.

    The family I was born with is not the family I have now. I'm adopted. Didn't figure that into the equation, did you.

    Yes. Different circumstances though like my mom living longer and healthier (me getting after her to eat healthier and maybe encouraging her to take walks with me when I was a child, teen, and in my 20s) and our dreams/goals coming true, and me telling her and doing with her the things I wish now I'd have said to her and done with then. And me thinking more of others first all the time.
