Are you adopted? Do you want to adopt or have your own child?

I was adopted as a baby, and even though I was blessed with an amazing family, I want nothing more than to have my own baby in the future. Even though things worked out for me, and I experienced the miracle of adoption firsthand, I still want to have a baby biologically related to me. Maybe it's because I do not look like any one in my family and want to have a child who possibly shares my features. I know that adopting a baby like my parents did and giving it a new chance would be great. Am I being selfish wanting my own biological children?

I personally wasn't adopted. I grew up in a loving home with 9 other children. I always knew I wanted a medium size family.I had always considered that I might adopted a child. Two years ago I adopted brothers.They are so sweetand wonderful but I also have a biological daughter of my own. I think that it is up to the parents to decide if they want to adopt or not.Not everyone wants to adopt a child .There is nothing wrong with that.Besides you never know you might change your mind.
