I want to know what the kids say (if they're old enough), and what the extended family say. He seems to be in contact with them; has he asked?
But yeah, wonderful letter, good answer.
(Though I'm uneasy with LW's husband, tbh. He should be troubled by this. Anyone white parent participating in a transracial adoption at this point has got to be willing to admit that the system in the US is basically designed to steal brown babies for white parents. And yes, I've known many wonderful, loving transracially-adoptive parents of great kids, some of whom are in my family, but that doesn't change the reality.)
