People always ask me how it feels to be adopted, and I never know how to respond. It’s even worse when people say “how does it feel to be black and being raised by a 61 year old white woman?”

Spend an hour or two thinking of a response then use it next time someone asks you
.
I’d use “well I can’t define it without having lived in a non adopted home”
Ask a stupid questions back & be as offending as possible! “How does it feel to be raised in a perfect family and still become an asshole?”
I’m adopted too. I’m indian and my parents are white, so I can relate. You can either give them a sarcastic reply showing them you don’t care, tell them to go fuck themselves, or ignore them all together. People can be naive, people can be assholes; don’t let it get to you. Especially if you’re living a good life and if you’re grateful for your parents — then it doesn’t matter what anyone else thinks. But in my opinion, you can still call them out for being so daft because that’s really rude of them in the first place.
