Hi there, just watched an old film this afternoon and it got me thinking. It was a suspense thriller and you better read on to know what it was about.

What would you do if you found our you were adopted and your father is... a serial killer?

Do you think it would impact your psychologically that your father was insane? Would you think otherwise of the possibility that you'd be following his footsteps?

I was referring to the movie where Anthony Hopkins and Jodie Foster was featured. The Silence of the Lambs.

So, what do you think?

HUH! he was her father in that film? How come i never got that point after watching the film about ten times?
well i must be dumb, and I'm sure my dad was no Einstein! lol!
well It's really very difficult to come to terms just with the fact you are adopted, and then to have a serial killer as your dad would be like the cherry on the cake, lol! seriously, I think it's a thing which no one can deal with it, and even if film makers do try and make a film on the subject, they are going to be light years away from reality.

Oh NO NO NO, Anthony Hopkins wasn't her father. I'm just thinking, what if you were adopted and your father was a serial killer. hehehe.. In no way was that related to them (except for the serial killer thing).

there's another movie with a simular story line. think it was called "whose your daddy" i didn't watch all of it.
it would be interesting having a parent who was well known and you don't find this out till your older. but i've not seen silence of the lambs, not been a movie i want to watch.

Wow!
Quite a dilemma! I'd hope there was sufficient strength in the nurturing of the adoptive parents to make such a thing impossible!

I thought you were referring to Harper's Island... even if your father is a serial killer you don't have to be one- you can be your own person without being influenced by your father....
