I know a few people who were adopted.
The two brothers I grew up with are a horribly sad story though. When the younger one was born, the mother was I think 16ish? Somewhere in that teen age. His brother was a year or two older. Well, the older brother was really rebellious and hated his adopted mother and he definately had reason to... she treated the younger one like gold but treated the older one like shit. It was sad one day when the younger one was telling me about it. They're from the same birth mother. He told me that the adopted mother didn't want to split them up, which is good, but it resulted in them bein split up in the end. My other childhood friends have seen the older one drive down the street sometimes. It's so sad. 
Then you have another one that I know is adopted... the only thing is that SHE doesn't know. It pisses me off that she's 24 years old and her parents have never told her. She has said stuff like "I think I'm adopted", but she's grown to look like her adopted parents.
And I know another family where both sisters couldn't have children so they adopted. One sister adopted a beautiful girl and boy from Russia. The boy looks like the mother and the girl looks like the father! They're so adorable, and when they adopted them, the parents bought stuff from Russia so they can teach them about their heritage and know where they're from. The other sister also adopted from Russia, but I only saw the baby when she was a few months old and she was so cute. The sister with the boy and girl also were on the news when they came back from Russia and newspaper and it was really exciting to see them!
