The authors of this book used ONE source to determine (on page 171) that adopted children have lower IQs than other children. This book is filled with offensive crap that has no real research to support any of it, yet it's on The Washington Post's bestseller list.

"...a woman who knows she will put her baby up for adoption may not take the same prenatal care as a woman who is keeping her baby. (Consider--at the risk of furthering the distasteful thinking--how you treat a car you own versus a car you are renting for the weekend...)"

I guess that now I'll have to keep my adoptive past a secret so that people won't know about my low IQ...
