The book states that Leia knew she was adopted, but didn't really consider it much. I have a few friends who were adopted, some at a rather late age. Their adoptive parents love(d) them and cared for them as much or more than any biological parent. It is very natural for them to view their adoptive parents as real parents. I'm sure that the Princess didn't have a rotten childhood and thought very kindly of her "parents." -- "The soapbox of Gene Spafford"
