I highly recommend it. I have two wonderful kids (don't tell them I said that). They were both born in Bogota, Colombia. Money was tight, but everything worked out, great. They are 18 and 20 now. We have several friends with mixed families (part adopted, some natural-born). No issues there. You might consider joining your local chapter of the Open Door Society. At least, attend a couple of meetings. You will get a chance to meet other adoptive families. It became a great resource for us. We found some people we really liked and our kids have become life-long friends.

Why not? If you and your husband both really want a girl, and you have the means, think how wonderful it would be to help a baby! And to give them a life they may have not otherwise had and just think by adopting you get to actually choose the famous debated question... Do you want a boy or a girl? I have 3 boys and 2 girls and boys are great but girls are awesome! Good luck to you and your husband whatever your decision may be and remember it takes people of great heart, patience and understanding not to mention many other qualities to adopt and relly love and raise a child. My blessings to you and your family!
JAT- just a thought

I think so . I told my husband I wanted 4 kids three of my own and then I wanted to adopt one . There are sooo many babies left at the hospital cause the mom is on drugs and they just walk out and leave them there just to get back out on the street. I would maybe try this first . Help a baby stay out of the system . Then you can also still get a newborn .

If you're feeling led to, then why not? Think of all the good that you'll be doing and how you can change the live of a child who has no parents. If money is not an issue and this is something that you really want to commit to, then go for it, it will be an amazing experience and forever rewarding.

he's immature. once you get extra mature he will be a weenie. If a guy won't be able to address females his personal age he will be unable to address you once you're that age. i'd be incorrect. Have him communicate this mutually with your mom and father. If he's fairly cool it is going to artwork with you and your confirm(s). If not he's a jerk who won't be able to get a lady his personal age so he's hoping to trick a a lot less mature woman beforehand she wises up. it really is you.

If you can provide a good life for the child and have the ability to teach and raise another child then yes, help someone.

there is no way u can produce by yourself, sorry to hear that. i would consider adoption is the baby was a new born, so no one would know your business. good luck with your decision. my opinion is that god bless u with 3 wonderful kids, that should be enough

I think you should. There are many African-american babies waiting to be adopted and not enough parents to do so.
