Sarah McLachlan
When she learned she had been adopted, Sarah McLachlan recalls taking the news in stride. “I think I was about nine,” she tells Parents. “And even then it wasn’t a big deal. It was like, ‘Oh, okay, good to know, you’re still my mom and dad.’
Perhaps I was too young to understand it really, but it just never was a big issue to me. I never had this empty place in me thinking that I’ve missed out somewhere, or that I was abandoned.” Later in life, McLachlan did meet her biological mother, an artist, who gave birth to her at the age of 19.
