Adopted Roles
Okay. Wonder for food.
In a family, it is always assumed who takes what role. For example, the father works; the mother cooks and cleans; the older brother watches over the younger sister; and the younger sister is the innocence of the family, the one proned to be curious.
Even in a gay relationship, roles are assumed. One is expected to be a man of the relationship, one likewise the woman.
Is that why the adopted kid feels so left out? Since he wasn't born or married into the family, he was assigned a role rather than assumed one all because he came at a later time? They are ladden with the weight of knowing they are an intruder to this family. Merely a person that must borrow a role rather than be assumed one.
Or is that as an adopted child, you are assumed the role of the depressed, angst child. A child that feels alone while his "parents" are thinking that he is craving too much attention?
Would it ever be possible for the parents and child to see eye to eye?
Okay. Enough thought for tonight.
