Adoption
-
Congrats, AdonciaTang. I think it's great. Older children often get overlooked in favour of babies, and, yes, there are unknowns and what-ifs, but, hey, that's life. I wish you the best of luck and I'm sure you'll all be very happy together

AdonciaTang:
Not able to offer much but do pray about it coz only He can provide the right answers to your doubts.
Both of her parents are dead.Nebbermind:
Personally, that is too close for comfort.
But why would the couple wanna give up the child, esp coming from a Christian background?

phtthp:
did you try IUI or IVF method ... better than adoption, bec it's your own genes ?AdonciaTang:
Haha true true. Was thinking of adopting a young girl too. Have been trying for a daughter but no results.
Sorry, i don't believe in adoption, maybe because of my friend's case.
Years ago, my friend adopted a baby girl from China.
when she grew up, she brought her lots of pain, heartache, grievances, sorrow ... defiant, stubborn, disobedient. In the end, my friend died from cancer.
doesn't mean own children will not grow up that way -

If one day she leaves us, then so be it. At least, DH and I have fulfill our duties as parents giving her unconditional love.
