1973
I was raised in a mostly white family in an all white community.
My abusers were my adoptive parents and their oldest biological son.

I was subjected to physical and mental abuse at the hands of my adoptive parents From June 1974 to December 1981.  The mental abuse continued from my adoptive mother from June 1974 and continued up to February 1993.  I also suffered sexual abuse from my adoptive parent's oldest biological son from 1977 to 1980.

Your Message
About Abuse: 

I continue to this day to have emotional scars and a physical scar.  I have intimacy issues with my spouse sometimes, which causes me to wonder if it has to do with the sexual abuse by my parent's oldest son.  Abuse of any kind towards any one, especially children should NOT be tolerated. 

About adoption: 

I don't believe in intercountry adoption because it separates the child from it's culture, language and self identity.  The child feels alienated within it's new culture in a predominantely white family.
