      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 πŸ™‚

        Personally, that is too close for comfort.


        But why would the couple wanna give up the child, esp coming from a Christian background?

        Both of her parents are dead.

        Not able to offer much but do pray about it coz only He can provide the right answers to your doubts. πŸ˜„

          Haha true true. Was thinking of adopting a young girl too. Have been trying for a daughter but no results.

          did you try IUI or IVF method ... better than adoption, bec it's your own genes ?
          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. πŸ˜ƒ

                Very happy to read that you have thought/talked through with your dh and have decided to love the girl as your own. I wish you and your new family unit all the best. :snuggles:
