When adoptive parents question the nature of chosen versus biological love

My wife and I adopted our son two years ago and we love him completely, but we sometimes wonder if the love we have for him is different from biological love, and whether he'll ever question that too. We're afraid to talk about it with each other because we don't want to suggest our love isn't real or enough.

More people experience this than they realize.

What we've seen

Two people are navigating whether love's origins affect its authenticity while fearing that examination might diminish what they've built.
