A man and his son were in a accident. The man died on the way to the hospital, but the boy was rushed into surgery. The emergency room surgeon said "I can't operate, that's my son!” How is this possible?
It can be possible in several ways.Let's make a few inferences from the given question.The man involved in the accident along with the boy was the father.And, there is a surgeon who is a parent of the boy. I said, parent because the gender is not specified and can be assumed either way.First Scenario:The man involved in the accident could be the boy's dad and the surgeon could be his mother. The assumption being that the Surgeon is a Lady.Second Scenario:The Surgeon could be his dad as well. Both the dads could have had the boy.Third Scenario:The man involved in the accident the boy's step-dad and the surgeon is his birth father or the birth mother. That works too.So, these are the multiple situations where the above story would hold.

Any good romantic manga's left out there?
You haven't even come close to reading all the good romantic manga out there! Red River Gakuen Alice Cross Game Koko ni Iru yo! * Hana to Akuma High Schoo Debut Strobe Edge NANA Nobody Can Hear Me But You Fruits Basket (gets tons better after v. 9) Otomen Watashitachi no Shiawase na Jikan are all fantastic romance manga. Koko ni Iru Yo! is the one I think comes closest to Dengeki Daisy.
PTSD from adoption?
The Casey Foundation did a study on former foster youth in Washington and Oregon and found their rate of PTSD to be twice that of the rate of the US Vietnam war veterans. I know its on their site somewhere, but I'm so tired, i'm just going to post the site, and those curious can find it themselves: http://www.casey.org/AboutCasey/ **************************************... Now thats on foster care youth and not adoptees. But adoptees have been found to have it too. And not just domestic adoptees, international adoptees as well. If you go to foster care alumnis website they say that international adoptees are said to have the same degree of PTSD "issues" ( i hate the word issues because I don't think these are issues at the fault of the child, these are surviving mechanisms so that they don't die from the state of trauma and shock ) as the foster youth. Again, thats TWICE the rate of the vietnam vets. Some online aliiances of mine are working on this project called "adopted the movie" and they have this youtube video out on PTSD and adoptees: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2ztjNlY4j... Nancy Verrier the adoptive parent who wrote "primal wound" hands this handout at her presentations and speakings: http://www.nancyverrier.com/misc.php <<< she absolutely talks about PTSD in infants JUST from the loss of mother. Again, if someone doesn't believe this happens to infants, they just haven't researched it enough. They just don't know. It exists and anyone who says it doesn't, hasn't done the research. Which isn't an insult to them, they just don't know.
