Adopt a child?

[kuzkasate]

When your older (I mean like 20's and stuff) would you adopt a child?
I really want to... because tbh its just so terrible and shocking. I really want to adopt a baby when I've got a family and a proper job.

Would you adopt a child and why?

Nope 'cause I'd always be like you ain't mine get out ;| and I'd rather bring up my own blood

[Absently]

I'd like to adopt but I'd feel bad because at some stage you have to let them know they're adopted and that's sad.

[Geraint]

No, I just couldn't feel the same about someone who I know is not mine.

[Arch]

I could possibly, although id rather raise my own

[TinyFroggy]

I would really like to adopt. But, i think i would tell em in early age tho.

[Berch]

I'd rather bring up my own child than someone elses but I dunno i'd have to be old enough and in the situation to make a proper decision.

[,Jess,]

I think I would adopt in the future. My Mum was adopted and so were 3 of her brothers and sisters, think they were told from an early age so they always knew which is probably the best way to do it.

[Mickword]

No I wouldn't I would try for one first and then if it fails like most of my life then I would consider it, and probably go with it.

My Uncle was put up for adoption and was given such a better life than he would have had in and out of foster care or living with my nan when she was 16 :rolleyes: I think I probably would if I had children and they were like 18+ and going to Uni/moving out and we still had a family sized house and if me and my partner thought we could cope.

[kuzkasate]

Perhaps I didnt make my self clear, my mistake. I meant like have my own kids & adopt... and btw is Jess banned ;o

same and they're normally a bit messed up

One of my friends' mothers has adopted a child alongside her biological children and it's very awkward. The girl doesn't like her adopted sister and thinks shes somehow intruding on her family and is getting more attention/love because she (The adopted kid) had a rough childhood.
I wouldn't personally have my own kids and adopt as well, but everyones different.

I would. If it was a child, I would let them know straight off that they were adopted, I think it would make it a lot easier down the road. I would like to adopt an older kid, like maybe 10 or 12, I would be an awful role-model, but they kid would have a lot of fun hahah

I would prefer a baby so I can teach him my own way, choose his lifestyle etc and teach him my language. But yh, I would be terrified to tell the adopted child because what if he/she will hate me or run away... I suppose thats low chances but still...

Oh and regarding the noobish question about Jess (so typical) I did find out like a few mins after I posted x

That's a horrible thing to say

I woulnt adopt, as the fact that id rather have my family being in my blood

[leah]

we could cope honey xo

erm because im scared of pain, so childbirth scares me to death I always thought I would adopt, but then, I wouldn't feel the same with an adopted child as I would a child of my own so i'm still undecided.

Why's that horrible it's exactly what you said you'd prefer

[Kowther]

No, I'd rather bring up my own.
adopting is easier though but the hard part is telling them that they're adopted.

[Samishlol]

Yes I would adopt, if it means giving another kid a better chance in life.

I would like my mine but i'm gay.

[GoldenMerc]

Yeh but theres no need to rub it in their face, im sure they would love to be biologically yours so why would you say 'your not mine get out' and all that. thats a really nasty thing to say

[Samishlol]

Because their ******* asses?

[GoldenMerc]

Who are?

[Samishlol]

Who ever tells their adopted child to get out..

[kuzkasate]

I just think that children deserve another chance at life... I mean its hardly their fault and what if they're really nice and talented? Dont you just feel sorry for all those innocent souls that will probably have practically no life if they dont get adopted...

[GoldenMerc]

In a way its like that but in a way most children do get fostered, although my ex got fostered she still see's her biological mother, but when your adopted you normally dont get the chance to see your biological mother unless you search for them.

[RastaLulz]

I'd never adopt a child, unless my wife, or myself could not have a child due to medical reasons. Other than that, I'd like to have a child of my own, and not someone elses kid, as that'd seem weird to me.
