> When some people think Nintendo, the first word that comes to mind is family. That’s likely the case for Nintendo employees Ross and Sandra Titus, who recently adopted their first child, 29-year-old Nintendo executive Jillian.

Interesting. I guess people who feel unloved will try to find parents no matter how old they are. What do you think about the article?

Well, Happycarol 🙂 I think that article shows that, even if one does not have much of a support system that they can still be successful and eventually/possibly find those who care about them all it takes is some patience and a heaping helping of resolve.

This article resonated with me. I too experience the alienation from family, (although not at the extreme degree of Ms. Titus) and to a larger degree society. I have a peculiar habit of encountering people when I am out and about who behavior towards me makes me think as if I sprayed some Instant Quasimodo on myself. 😛

It is defiantly a battle to go through life not knowing where you belong. However, from my experience it is a battle worth fighting for because as the article illustrates the rewards make it worth it eventually. 🆒

I agree, it would be nice to be able to pick a family and adopt them even as an adult!
