If people are bullying you and saying haha you're adopted just turn to them look then dead in the eye and say my parents chose me yours are stuck with you
People that adopt orphans are usually the greatest people that ever lived. Takes so much love and passion to take and bring up the child of another. Im happy for Katya for being so positive and mature about it, those are stepping stones to a great life, or so I hope
I was adopted and am uploading my story as we speak. Your attitude about be adopted is awesome. Your mentality and positive outlook on such a sensitive subject is really infectious in a good way. You can do great things with your life I am glad I came across your video.
Just stumbled across your video. I was adopted at 5 days old. I never understood adoption jokes either. I didn't understand adoption either, but my parents told me when I was very young, never wanting to hide it from me either. I felt pretty lost until I met my birthmother when I was 36 and heard the story firsthand. She couldn't have kept me, and was very brave to make this tough decision; she wanted to keep me, but there was no practical way for her to do it. I admire your confidence, joy, humility, and courage. Bless you, honey. Thanks for sharing your story.
Loved this! Love u! This was so encouraging to watch. Thank u for sharing. I am doing my home work and getting ready to adopt. You are so wounderful for sharing your story! So sorry for those ignorant poeple who make adoption jokes! That is shocking! You are beautiful! I hope all my children are as happy as you seem to be!
Im 15 and love to hear adoption stories... When I am older though and have started a family I would love to adopt a child of my own! I have always loved the idea of it.. You are so gorgeous and seem so nice and I loved your story! Stay strong!!
well done girl.. you're amazing.. and what an inspiring life journey you've had.. and i think your parents that adopted you are heroes.. keep on kicking goals girl!
Adopted? Cleft palate? Bullied? You are drop dead gorgeous, kick ass brave and so well adjusted and full of confidence. The world needs to hear your story... continue with it please!
Katya, thanks for opening up adoption! You such a brave girl! I see how much you love your parents! I am an adoptive mom of a Russian little boy, he is almost 6 years old now. it is a blessing to have him in our life !!!
Thank you so much for this video :) i am also an adopted child and i had to go through bulling ever since i was in kindergartian and i hyad to go through such a hard time with it every since then and i was embarressed about it, but know that i saw this video i am proud of being adopted and thank you so much for sharing this story and god bless you :D Everyone who is adopted, god bless YOU :'D
I'm also adopted and I feel the same way like I knew from a very young age and I feel like I'm so much like my parents and I love them to moon and back even thought it's been hard for me sometimes it makes me stronger and a better person because of that even though some people make jokes I don't let it bother me because everything happens for a reason and being adopted is one thing that I would never change about myself
Why would anybody make fun of adopted kids? Its kind of funny because most kids who are adopted....are adopted by wealthy people. Kids who are adopted are given a chance for a better life...not in all cases but in most.. anybody who makes fun at that is just pathetic and it degrades a person to have that much disrespect towards an individual. So I'm glad you ignore them! Besides your beautiful, with a great personality...
I've been begging my my mum to adopt!! I think it's ridiculous that people make fun of people because they're adopted! It's immature and really mean! But hey! You can always say you're parents chose you!
Hey, I love your video. I was adopted at 7 months old from South Korea. I didn't really think that much about my adoption, I guess from being to young.
Hello. We adopted our daughter also with a cleft lip and palate. I was browsing through RUclips looking for speech therapy pointers. Our little just turned 2.
To the people that make fun of you because you're adopted.. you tell them that you were chosen. You were picked out. Your parents knew what they were getting when they chose you. Their parents were stuck with what they got. ;)
i am adopted. high five for the adopted kids!!! Anyone who makes fun of adopted people are probably the ones who had parents that didnt want them, but did give them up to someone who would truly love em! (thats my opinion tho. LOL)
My mother died when I was 3 and my father left me because he never wanted me and hated me a lot so now I grew with some other family and I do love my family alot
I'm like "Barely" Pregnant... and I'm Considering adoption but for Money Reasons Not love or any of that stuff. I live in a Two Bedroom Apartment But would probably need Food Stamps To get By because I have Cerebral Palsy and that kinda makes it hard to work as much as I would need to and at times at all. I would like to hear from Adopted Children and People who are going to tell me What they think about... this.
I hate adoptions storys, because they always made me so sad..u had luck, that u get adopted, because there where u was born, there is nothing! People there working their hole life for cents and they are not able to life the live you have right now! And you have the chance, to have a better live! The most women in this countrys give their babys to adoption, because they just not able to give them what they need..and most of the time the father is gone or is an alcoholic!
Im Adopted and the only thing i have to be thankfil for is that she gave me up for adoption. my birth mother left me in the hospital within hours of giving birth.... and before people say "well maybe she couldnt look after you" and so on.. she already had a son - my full brother - who WASNT adopted at birth and at19 i had the oppertunity to search for her but i chose that my life is 100% better with out her
YOu are wonderful, I was adopted at 9 days but only found out when I was 28 and it broke my heart, adoption jokes? I dont get them, obviously, There IS A prank video online that plays with the adoption idea, it didnt make me laugh at all. Adoption for the child is rejection, nomatter how much we try to rationalise with our adult minds, the child within cannot forget and should not forget maybe, great video anyway, God Bless you. I made my own adoption video, come see and we can compare notes.
Omg I didn't even realize u had a cleft lip until u pointed it out btw your super pretty
If people are bullying you and saying haha you're adopted just turn to them look then dead in the eye and say my parents chose me yours are stuck with you

Life is not a movie. I don't think people make fun of others for being adopted.
I'm glad you made this video.

Thanks for sharing!
You are true inspiration for both adopted children and children with cleft lips/palates!
adopted as well. Yes I agree with the positive attitude, good for you! :)
A good come-back to say to someone for picking on you because you're adopted is "My parents CHOSE me, your parents got stuck with you"
Ur one of the most important friends in my life and coming to think of it, if u weren't adopted i would have never met you
i love you ;)
Don't let people make fun of you. You are beautiful
I'm adopted too! I'm from Russia too!!!! I was 13 months old! U r amazing!!! I look up to u!!!

You're so pretty ! My best friend is adopted and she hates it. But she's never been made fun of or anything like that.

I would like to hear from Adopted Children and People who are going to tell me What they think about... this.
Sending love hoping to foster and adopt by 2019.
