Pamela K. - We'll tell Jay he's adopted just as soon as he can talk. Lawrence G. - That's terri ble. I was happy until my par ents spoiled it. Pamela K. - 1 don't know all the reasons but we've been advised by the agency through which we adopted our darling son that it's best to be com pletely honest with him about how he came to us. He's only 10 months old now and all he can understand is that we love him deeply. When he's old enough to enjoy a story we'll figure out how to let him know that we found our way to his side because he was meant to be ours. He'll know that the only difference be tween him and other children is that other parents had to accept what came, but we could choose exactly the child we wanted-our Jay. We have a bachelor friend, however, who warns us not to say a word until Jay is a grown man. As an adopted child himself, he says he grew up feeling stigmatized and set apart from other kids. Is he right? Lawrence G.-Now that I'm old enough to look back, I think I'd rather have grown up believing I'd been born to my parents like other kids. But they followed the advice Pam got. They told me I had no past, only a present and a future which they would make as happy as possible. I was 10 years old when the full mean ing of it all hit me. It was hard to feci so different. Other kirU have relatives. I had adopted parents and my rela "special-delivery" baby. It's called "All About You" by Marion A. MacLeod. While The Council avoids commercialism, we wish to recommend this buoyant and ' sensitive volume as an ally to Pam in the telling and retell ing of Jay's adoption story. It begins with space for pictures of "How You Looked to us When You Arrived" and "How We Looked to You." It invites records and mementos. Over the years it can build into a testament which speaks louder than words. Eventually all children learn of their adoption. Learn ing it early from their parents in a warm, loving way enables them to take it in stride, ad just to it and steel themselves (better than did Lawrence we hope!) against the ignorant, the mischievous, and the ma licious inevitably encountered. Economy Shows Slight Recovery Washington - ll'PI) - Govern ment economists said Tuesday that, considering the stock market plunge and a drop in steel orders, they were happy the nation's economic recov ery made even a slight rise in June. In its monthly national sum mary of business conditions, the Federal Reserve System said most business activity showed little change last month. This amounted to a "slow down from the steady recov ery since the dropoff last Jan uary, but at least it was an tives weren't mine. They were advance," a Commerce De my parents'.
