    In one, I hold the hand of a mother who has to painfully let go; in the other, I celebrate with parents with a long-awaited child to hold.
    —Wong Wei Lei, Senior Social Worker

    Being adopted makes me feel wanted, knowing that I was chosen.
    —Chang Hann, Adoptee

    As I watch my children grow, I am beginning to further understand what it means to be a parent and how the child deserves to know the truth, even though this may cause some issues.
