why do you want to adopt?
Because I love to share. And there's millions of orphaned children who need a home, I don't consider my reduced freedom to be a sacrifice there. Just a shift in experiences
That's laudable. Children living in institutions will certainly benefit from growing up in a home with one busy parent than with no family at all.
Perhaps you LIFE have an extended family that can help out?
Our second son is adopted. I wanted to repost here for you our experience with the adoption process, which I described in RD.net a couple times. Yet I'm unable to locate the posts now
The first post may date from as far back as 2007 and the most recent one may be over a year old already-- maybe that's why? (You Life may be more resourceful to run searches, if you're interested in some of the details of international adoption-- at least re: the US).Congrats on your wish to adopt
