You can adopt if you have kids and should feel no guilt about it! Many people are considered unfit to adopt, and so many kids are stuck in foster care for their entire lives. Any chance a child has to be adopted is a good one.
I have a cousin who is adopted, and her adoptive parents already had 3 biological daughters. She is just as much a member of the family as they are, so you shouldn't have to worry about people treating him/her differently either.

No it is not wrong for you to adopt. It is perfectly normal for a couple who can have kids to adopt some. Don't worry about the people who can't have kids, there are plenty of children who do not have parents who are waiting for someone to adopt them. Think about the kids life who you will be saving and taking care of. Maybe if you don't adopt them no one will and then they will end up in an orphanage, which isnt even close to a nice couple adopting them or single person it doesnt matter. All children need a home so why not adopt, even if you plan on having kids later down the line.

I would have kids and then adopt so that you can explain to your kids that hey, we are going to get a new bro/sis for you what do you think? I think it's a tricky situation, but if you have the love in your heart for both your kids and the kids of other, I say go for it. There are so many kids in America who need good, loving homes, who are being over looked for children from other countries. You would be doing a great thing. Don't think of it as taking from someone else, b/c you never know; what if you didn't adopt that child and he or she never got adopted at all? Good luck. I hope you make the right choice for you and your family. God Bless You.

There are way more kids up for adoption than there are parents who are seeking to adopt. You won't be taking another's chance of having kids.

Answer to your question: Anytime!!! It doesn't matter that you have kids, are older, younger, single, married. There are children out there that need homes and I am truly a pro-adoption kind of person who believes there is always time for another adoption. Prayers =)

No, there are a tun of children that need to be adopted! So don't ever think that! You have to be 21 years old to adopt....and have a lot of money, because it is extremely expensive! Good luck

If you treat the adopted kids the same as your "real" kids then I say go for it. If your going to treat them differently I'd wait to have your own kids.

There are so many kids out there that need a good home, and if you aren't looking for a newborn baby you could really be saving a child's life by bringing them into your home, regardless if you have your own kids or not.
