This paper is about issues related to adoption, which is also a subject of other disciplines, such as pediatrics, sociology, laws, etc. The author tries to find out or poses the question if there are psychopathological issues related to adoption or if considering adoption itself a disorder is a projection of universal troubles in parent-children relationships. After an eventually traumatic event (abandonment, infertility) it can display different outcomes, such as a mutual adaptation and growth or different levels of failure in family links, that may be harmful for subjectivity. Some troubles may be due to difficulties in processing the family romance, described by Sigmund Freud. This can appear in phantasies -about robbing or incest-, dreams and acting out, such as returning children back, reciprocal ill-treatment or runaways in adolescence. In clinical work we can see that often it is difficult for parents to fully adopt their kid -biologic or not- but also this difficulty can be originated in the child, who cannot "adopt" his new parents. The author also describes issues related to transference and counter-transference in psychoanalytic treatment with adopted children and their parents. As an example, the author relates the case of a girl that was in psychoanalytical treatment between her 11 and 15 years of age. At last, the author sets a question about possible difficulties in the relationship of adopted people with their own children. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
