haven't talked to her about it in ages, but a friend of my mum who works with troubled kids reckons a lot of the troubles come from how people react to adoption.
she said the number of adopted kids referred to them was way, way above what you'd expect if adoption had no part to play.
my own anecdote; i can remember five suicides from my peer group when i was growing up, all blokes. i know for sure two of them were adoptees, and a friend reckons another of the was also an adoptee.
