Adoption

Hi, coolcoder I do not think that I have been adopted. I look too much like my brothers, that there is no doubt I am their sister I have a friend who was adopted. Her biological mother was the sister of her mom. When she was in college, she went through a rebellious stage, drinking and wanting impossible things. In short, she became the headache of the people who raised her. But I guess they were very patient with her and they raised her well because my friend overcame that and became "normal" again. I think adopting is ok if one is ready to take on the responsibility and he or she promises to be patient with the adopted child in case any drama occurs. Have a nice day!

I had a best friend as a child that knew she was adopted. she was very proud of it because she felt/knew her parents chose her. i think it was a great attitude they gave her. i have a cousin that was adopted out. i've tried several times through life to find her as my aunt that gave her up is the best woman i've ever known and i've always wanted to let her know thats why she was given up by someone that loved her so much she wanted to make sure she would not have to suffer the things she would if she'd kept her.

as far as i knew, i was not adopted, i'm the 7th child of 8. my older sister has one, just a few years before she gave birth to her own. given a chance, why not. i'm pretty open with the idea. since i'm not fairly sure if i'll have a child of my own. i'm so fond of babies and children that if i won't be blessed with at least one of my own, then i'd go for adoption.

I have some friends that are adopted. One of my friends was adopted by a lady. Before that my friend had come from an abusive background. Another of my friends didn't wish to find out about her birth parents. I am a primary school teacher and I have taught some adopted and some fostered children. My toddler son goes to a playgroup for disabled children. My friend that goes there is a foster carer for children that are going to be adopted. She is currently looking after a little girl called Skye. I wish I could adopt her or another little girl. She is so sweet. She is the same size as my six month old baby girl. I would like to adopt a little girl from an orphanage in China.

My husband and his brother were both adopted at birth. Neither one of them has any regrets. My husband feels that he has had a great childhood and his parents went out of their way to make sure that they had everything they needed. My husband and I are planning on adopting a child.
