Adoption is a wonderful oppurtunity i think. Some people who can not have their "own" children are able to adopt. I think it is awesome. I also think it takes a lot of love to place a child up for adoption. It takes a parent knowing they can not care properly for whatever reason, for the new baby and they love the child so much they give them to someone who can provide 100%. I have twins who are adopted and to me, my life would never be the same without them. I am fortunate that i am also able to have my "own" biological child which is due March 29th, but truthfully...i love my twins more then anything in the world. They are MINE in every sense, i am mommy.....i got to be at the hospital just after they were born and its just been amazing. I would 100% recommend adoption to anyone considering. (My adoption was private, through a family member, so i cant give much advice on regular adoptions) And to a parent who has given their child for adoption, just know you changed the lives of soooo many people. The child, the parents who adopted your child, and all the family this child now has. My mom has 11 grandchildren, including my twins, and she loves them all the same. (ok maybe she favors the twins....but who wouldnt!? haha)

My husband and his younger brother were adopted. Their other brother is the natural child of their adoptive parents. They always knew of their adoptions and it was all very positive to them. His parents never hid anything from them and always told them all they knew of their birth mothers. His adoptive dad is now deceased but his adoptive mother was always supportive and we were able to meet my husband birth mother, step father, grandparents and brothers and sisters several years back and are in regular contact and have regular visits with them. Both his adoptive mother and birth mother get on well with each other.
My husbands adoptive parents treated all three children equally whether they were adopted or natural and all three brothers considered themselves full and true brothers.
I don't know excatly what insight you want on adoptive parents so you may need to be a little more specific.

I adopted my son 7 years ago. I'm not sure what kinds of insights I can give you other than about myself/ Like birth parents, adoptive parents come in all types.

my auntie was adopted, her birth family traced her when their mother died, they never knew she existed. i think you have to be a really kind person to open yourself up to someone elses child in that way. be warned, by posting this question on here you will probably get some cruel and moronic answers. i personally think you are very brave.

We work as volunteers at a children's home where they administer a foster parent and adoption program. What is your question?
