No one is posting in the Lounge, so I'll just bring up and ask your opinion on what I thought about today.
If someone is adopted, would they consider their ancestors those of their biological parents, or those of the family they grow up with and why? |

Well, technically it would be your biological family. If someone who's French was adopted by Dutch parents they probably wouldn't call themselves Dutch. That's not to say that their culture wouldn't be that of a Dutch. Their heritage is with their biological parents, but their culture is with their adoptive parents, I guess.
Sheesh, I come up with weird examples. |
