Based on the passage below, answer the question: 'Being an adoptee is performative. Some words for this are: being good enough, assimilating, fighting for acceptance, not being but being-as. Adoption is arduous for everyone, even when it works. So I find the social media trend for videos of adopters and adoptees meeting for the first time incomprehensible. It's not just that it's voyeuristic: it's that those posting and viewing them seem unable to see what's there in plain sight. Today, many domestic adoptions, in the UK at least, are open. The child they're built around knows where she came from. But when I was a baby, most adoptions were not only retroactively closed but conducted blind... Videos that parade this meeting are usually labelled #happymoment... They make everything that's difficult about adoption visible...' Consider the following statements: A. The author finds social media videos of first meetings between adopters and adoptees problematic. B. The author believes that the challenges of adoption are often hidden in such videos. C. The author’s own experience of adoption included an open relationship with their birth family. Which of the following is correct?
- 1All A, B, and C are correct
- 2Only B and C are correct
- 3Only A and B are correct✓
- 4Only A and C are correct
