Friends of ours who are very conservative and strong Christians adopted a boy and girl orphans from Liberia at ages 3 and 4. I cautioned them about that and they were somewhat offended and were cool towards me for years. Both have been homeschooled and in private school and are now a junior and senior in high school. Now they are exhibiting typical groid behavior although they have never been around said groids. Parents are puzzled.
I’m not. You can take the groid out of Africa, but not the Africa out of the groid.
Have to told them,
“I told ya so”, yet
No, I would not do that to a friend on such matters. The mom hinted it to my wife during a conversation about the kid’s behaviors. No need to rub it in; they know the score now. Happy Trails
