Kung Fu Adoption?

“The past is history, The future is a mystery, Today is a gift, that’s why it is called the present.”

I have not seen the movie yet because it is difficult to take AJ to the theater. I do want to take him on a Friday that he does not have camp. I think he would REALLY enjoy the Kung Fu Fighting. But, from what I have gathered about Kung Fu Panda, the story is loosely based on adoption. Po, the Panda, was adopted by a bird and never quite understands his place in the family.

Po’s father is, without any explanation, a goose. There’s a scene late in the movie where it seems as though Po’s father is about to tell him that he’s adopted (which he seems not to have figured out on his own), but then he switches tacks and tells him something else entirely.
