This is an offshoot of Italian's thread about adult adoptees. When do you tell people that your dc is adopted? Like other posters I feel I have told people who don't really need to know. Sometimes it's unavoidable, e.g. someone asks me where dd is and she is with her biological grandparents. I also feel weird when someone says something like "Your dd is so tall for her age, is her dad very tall"? DH happens to be very tall but it feels a bit dishonest to just say "Yes he is".
