adoption


Question Posted Saturday April 8 2006, 1:23 pm

well in the future i plan on adopting a child but I'm having a hard time deciding on where to adopt from.. I have 2 things to consider
1) how bad situations are were the child is from
2) how well they will fit into my family (looks wise)

I was thinking of adopting a baby from china but 1- they wont look anything like my family
2- there are over 50 nationalities in china and i don't know which one to pick


i think i want a baby from Mexico but i dont know! its so hard to decide

if a white female with slightly tan skin and dark hair

I want pics only please! if you can send me pics of coutries that alow adoption and what a child from there might look like that their situation what not that would be amazing! (must have most of that to get a 5)

I'm really open to any country accept like america and canada!

Why should you care what a baby looks like? Everyone should care for a baby the same! My friend from China was adopted by an american, white family and she loves them! You need to chill out. Any baby you can have is a miricale and should be loved and cared the same way. if u dont find that is true, then children are totally not for you.

Have you considered Eastern Europe (countries like Romania and Bulgaria for example)? Eastern Europeans (with the exception of Hungarians) tend to be dark haired, white and possibly somewhat tanned. I put my money on that it would be the closest match to what you are after.

Pictures wont do you much good since they look like every other dark haired caucasian child. For example, you wouldnt be able to tell a Romanian person from an Italian or Spaniard.

Certainly the situation for many children in those areas is really bad, so I think it would fit both your criteria.

Since I don't know how old you are, I hope we on this board can set you straight. I don't want you to think I am a mean person, but I just couldn't resist answering this. First of all from going by your post, I don't think you are cut out to be a parent. Hitler wanted to develop the perfect race and the perfect person. One doesn't pick out a child the way they decide on what breed of puppy fits their lifestyle better. In fact..I am not so sure you should even own a puppy. If he pees on the floor I bet you'd take him back and ask for one that doesn't.

Adoption is an honorable thing to do, and my hat's off to adoptive parents and all they've gone through to bring a precious little one into their lives. However, you make it look like a joke!

You sound like an idiot.
I hope you cannot adopt.

You adopt a child because you want a baby with every fiber of your being. This isn't a dog. Who the hell cares what the baby looks like? It's a baby and when you take him/her in, he/she becomes a part of you and your family no matter what.

Does it really matter from which country you adopt? No. It really doesn't.

Are you adopting because you truly, in your heart, want a baby or are you adopting because you want a pretty little family unit? Jesus. You sound so selfish and uncaring about the entire thing.
