Can Creator comment on the difference between genetic birth children versus adopted? Certainly, there are disastrous relationships between biologically related parents and children and wonderful ones with adopted children. But we see time and again adopted children seek out birth parents, even when the adopted parents are loving and generous in every conceivable way. Overall, are there energetic, compatibility issues with adopted versus birth-related children? How important and compelling is the special bond with a biological parent?

Typically, birth parents have a prior connection with the soul and that is the reason that soul has come down to be in that family unit. It is always agreed to, on all levels, by the incoming soul and the parents involved in creating that life within the womb. When this does not work out and the baby is given up for adoption, it is because of the complications of karma and may well be part of a plan, in fact, to rear an infant but surrender it quickly as a karmic loss, for example, to learn a lesson, but then entrust the infant to someone else for safekeeping and to be raised successfully in another environment so there is not a great harm done. So there are many possible scenarios here that result in disruption of family relationships to create adoption situations. It is often the case that people come back to be together as parent and child to work on deep karmic difficulties and this is the reason for so many challenges for people to get along within a family. It is often that there are old wounds from prior lifetimes of discord, disappointment, neglect, or even abandonment that are being worked through in a new incarnation and the old wounds will rumble and create friction, mistrust, and even open hostility at times. This will not be consciously perceived for what it represents, but these influences can be quite strong and may be a determining factor in whether children maintain a relationship with the biological parents or seek to leave as soon as possible. The same potential pitfalls can happen with adoption, that sometimes the adoptive parents are known to the child through other lifetime involvements and this can be a coming together, yet again, to work on old problems that resulted in difficulty and damage to the parties, and so this may happen yet again where things become strained and lead to conflict. But it can also be the case that adoptive parents, by virtue of having no prior karmic history, will be more accepting and more loving than someone who is their biological child and there because there is a big karmic rift in need of healing, but will be quite challenging to accomplish because the wounds are very deep and there will be much discord and mistrust that happens subconsciously and will be quite difficult to overcome. So there are many possible scenarios here but these are the considerations giving rise to this array of seeming failures and inequities that people meet coming into life and seeming to have an undesirable situation at the outset with a parent who doesn’t want them or who they can’t get along with. The key, as always in relationships, is whether both parties are truly on a divine path and in divine alignment. If that is so, it will be much easier for a natural attraction and acceptance to form bonds of love rather than growing resentment and even hatred.
