In the older times, people had so many beliefs. One of them was, a boy born in a particular star (astrological), was considered bad if he is not the first baby. (The belief was it would be harmful to the elder son or daughter). In that case, they used to sell babies to relatives for the sake of record. Otherwise, those children grow with their parents. I was second in my filial rank, born on that star. Know what happened? I was sold to my grandma, for less than 1/4c.

Hello makeupartisteileen! It really depends upon the reason why they sell me away and depends on how my life goes. If I met them and my life was miserable with the person who bought me, then I'll be angry with them and never want to see them again. If the reason is that they don't have money and they can't take care of me anymore and I will die of hunger if I will stay with them, then it would be their responsibility to make sure the person who will buy me would take care of me.

I'm sure that they would have had their reasons, but I would still at least be annoyed with them for doing this. I don't think that I could really accept their reason for selling me.

there are a lot of variables in that, if it was purely for money and personal gain the i would just walk right past them,it might be a bit harsh but they sold me. And i would treat my foster parents, or what ever you would call them as my real parents, would however be mad at them for not telling me i was adopted or bought, if it was due to a disaster or something out of thier control i would probably greet them as a sort of foster or a god parent or similar, but that still depends on the circumstances even if they done it because they couldnt look after me because they couldnt aford it and would of had a bad life would still talk to them, then there the point of all the family you have that you dont know brothers cousins sisters auntys uncle's grandparents,

I wouldnt care at all. They must have had a reason for selling me and even though they made money from it, another couple who couldnt have kids would have wanted me so bad they would have paid the amount anyway. I wouldnt see them as being my parents as they hadnt raised me, my adoptive parents would be the only people who could take credit for that, and I wouldnt want to upset my adoptive parents by being hung up about my biological roots.

It would depend a great deal on the circumstances. If they sold me away for money, I would be very upset. But, at the same token, if they were too poor to care for me properly I would be grateful to the people who cared enough about my wellbeing to bring me up properly. I would still call them mom and dad since they did give me life and it is a form of respect. In Islam, it is taught that your parents are still your parents even if some other couple fostered you and the child is obligated to pay due respect to their parents as well as the couple who fostered them. I don't know about how other religions view this, but Islam is most just in this regard.

I would have no problem for I would not know if they were my original parents. Unless and until I was told I would not suspect either. Now if my non parents are all good people I would accept them to be my original parents and besides there is nothing to cherish that you are the children of your original parents. Do you have?
