To suggest there is no difference is just jumping the shark and then some. And stop bringing it back to love. You can love your adopted child just the same as your biological child, but only one of them is a scientific wonder. A piece of you in a piece of someone else. A continuation of your own family line.

Of course some of this also drips into how you bring up and teach your child - it's not all biological, but there is clearly a difference.

If they were the exact same in every way, much, much more people would adopt. Even just to avoid the pain of childbirth.
