Adoptee nouns ?
I would like to know if any adoptees have experienced discrimination such as this:

I know I enjoy had difficulties obtaining official documents because of my amended birth card.
I have not have this problem in the regards of trying to obtain documents or contained by any type of legal action. However, I have come across the "sympathetic souls" who enjoy felt the need to lightly stroke your arm and tilt their leader to the side while they have reassured me that there is nought wrong with being adopted, how lucky I am to enjoy been chosen (you know, out of the cabbage patch?!?) or the many physical differences between myself (tall fair skin blond/red haired & Irish) and my largeness impaired Italian mother with olive skin. I thank all those those for letting me know that I am a person to and deserve to be treated like everyone else.
I have to wonder though, how these sensitivity impair types of people treat immigrants as well.
I've never experienced the level of nouns as shown in the article. However, I have occasionally experienced minor issues with clerks/consultants who won't adopt my amended birth certificate as they considered the certificate not to be real/legal. I've found that talking directly to the bureaucrat about "my situation" quickly solves the issue.
that is HORRIBLE! I was adopted, and singular stupid idiots at my school make fun of me. They say within "just kidding", and i ignore it, but you know, it still gets beneath your skin. But they are the ones being rude and immature.
Nope.
I can't speak for anyone else though...I a moment ago know that things are a bit different in Canada, being a bit more adoptee-friendly.
I have never have issues with passports, marriage licensing, or anything of the sort. I be also able to obtain (although, not easily!) a copy of my daughter's OBC for her contained by case she wants it, but as I said, using my current birth cert. has not be an issue for me whatsoever.
Strange that he and his parents insist he is not adopt. I wonder what's odd or suspicious looking on his birth certificate?
That is awful!! No I have not have any problems whatsoever, my birth certificate has always worked when applying for anything.
Maybe I missed something here but I don't read it so much that he was discriminated upon due to being adopt as much as they have concerns, for what ever reason, over the legitimacy of his papers including his birth certificate. No where on earth in the article does it state just what kind of birth licence he has but it does outline how they feel his documents are fake which, lower than Jewish law, calls into question his "jewishness" and so the Rabbis ability to perform the Jewish wedding.
My dad be Roman Catholic. If I was brought up in the RC church, viewed myself as RC and practiced that tradition my intact life but never got baptized in the RC church they would not spot me as being RC. In fact, I was truly raised in the Anglican church and even though I was baptized and quality myself to be Christian the RC church does not recognize any of it. In the case of this young man it seem to me that they are questioning his documents and therefore his ability to be considered Jewish. The reality that he was NOT adopted (according to him) doesn't change the reality that the Rabbi still feels his docs are fake.
The fact that he does not own an amended birth certificate (or at least the article doesn't mention that) means that this have nothing to do with adoption and everything to do with the Rabbis perception of the legitimacy of a non-adoptees documents.
As to the meat of your press however, no, I have never had a problem with anyone recognize my birth certificate with my adopted parents scheduled on it. Drivers licenses, passports, an almost 30 year career in the military, numerous trips overseas..never have a problem (thankfully).
Thats really bizarre. i've never had issues similar to that, but i havent attempted to apply for a passport or anything.
Thats silly that he can't even get married!
Answers: When I was hired by my current employer, my citizenship was questioned because the human resources department did not certificate my amended birth certificate as valid. I was put into a position of having to explain, repeatedly, to numerous individuals in HR that I was adopted, which have nothing to do with my capabilities to do my work.
And of course, I then heard by alike numerous people how lucky I was to be 'chosen'.
Repeatedly.
There is also this horrifying instance of an adoptee being treated resembling a criminal at her DMV office because of her amended birth certificate:

That is a short time ago sad!
But I thought that when you adopted a child, your heritage became theirs? HAHAHA.
