YBut it's understandable that his child could have taken those words with a little more meaning than they have and totally fail the context of them. The context isn't hard to miss for a child that only wants to play a game for fun. The thing is when you reach those parts in the game, the story get much more visual and it's easy to a child to pay more attention to them.
Not standing for this cause though, but that father have my sympathy.

The game is E10 . Irresponsible father I say. It's easy to put the blame on anyone.

His daughter is 10 years old. Explain to me how that was irresponsible.
While the game meant this in good humor and nothing personal, I can easily see how an adopted child could take it harshly. Being adopted is an extremely tough situation to deal with for certain people, and I find it completely understandable if someone were to take it personally. We're humans, after all.
Yes, yes, from what I can tell, Glados is calling him an idiot for making "adoption jokes," but I don't think that'd really stop the sting someone gets when they hear his comments. We're humans. A lot of us are insecure in different ways, and you can bet a lot of adopted children are insecure for that reason. It'll sting, even if the developers didn't mean for it to be taken seriously.
Just sayin'.

I didn't know her daughter was 10 years old but then if she's 10 years old she's definitely old enough to understand these kinds of things.
