you know Dennis..I assume you never walked in the footsteps of an adopted child...

Steve Jobs said the only REAL parent he knew were the parents who raised and loved him, he must have been satisfied..

Don't you think?

No I am not adopted but if I was and my biological father summoned me I would respect this and meet up with him. If I’m a tremendous success then I figure he is partly responsible. The really cute part is that St Jobs believed more in nurture than nature until he met up with his famous sister

>>>>His sister is Mona Simpson, the acclaimed writer of books like “Anywhere But Here.” Jobs did not meet Simpson until they were adults, when he was seeking information on his birth parents. Simpson later wrote a book based on their relationship. In the book, “A Regular Guy,” Simpson shed light on Jobs’s relationship with Brennan and his daughter, Lisa. <<<<<

After he met her (also very accomplished) it changed his life and he believed more in nature. Nature would be this biological father (an old man of 80) who he refused to meet with before he died. He couldn’t humor the old man who gave him his high IQ and drive. A rotten failing in my book.
