I have a friend that was adopted when he was a year old and my sister might have to adopt if she ever wants kids, so I was wondering what everyone thought about it. Would you mind adopting, do you see it as wrong, etc?

I would never give up my child for adoption, but support other mothers who do. If they don't want the kid or can't raise it, there is nothing wrong with giving the child up. And I most certainly plan on adopting myself in the future. I want so many kids (both adopted and not), my friends think I'm crazy.

The circumstances under which I would place a child for adoption are so limited & completely different from my life that I can't imagine it ever happening. Placing a child for adoption when the parents know they can't be good parents is a very courageous decision, though.

I would love to adopt. I'm fostering right now & would love to adopt him if things go that way; unfortunately my income is low enough that I don't know if I'll be allowed to. I would also love to adopt from overseas (like Haiti, for example, where it's crystal clear that the kids need homes & there's really no taint of "baby-selling" ) but again my income is too low. 😔

I'd prolly adopt. I want kids, but I don't want to get pregnant. Plus there are sooo many orphaned/unwanted kids there >_< I'd adopt them all, if I could.

I would adopt, but I don't think I would give up my kid in adoption, it's a personal choice. If things aren't in good shape I would try to find a way, and if I can't then maybe leave him with a relative and get the kid back when I had resolved my problems.

I would definitely adopt, but I doubt I would ever give my child up for adoption. I do, like many others here, fully support others who feel that they must give their child up for adoption if they know that they can not properly care for the child. I see this as doing what is best for the child and thus these people, I believe, are doing the right thing.

I would definitely adopt but I'm just a bit scared of raising both my birth children and adopted children. I don't want them to misinterpret any of my actions thinking I'm discrimintaing T_T

I would put my children up to adoption if I couldn't provide for them. To be honest, mistakes do happen. Condoms do break, everything is probability anyway. So in those cases where I cannot provide, I would want to put my child up for adoption.

Unless my child would die if I kept it I would never give it up. Honestly I don't support people who do either, unless it's the right reason. Would adopt though, children need love to be become who they were meant to be.

I would do both.

But only putting them up for adoption if it was an extreme case, one of which i cant think of at this time.

I'd sooner send them off to live with relatives, because i know i could trust them, and When we(or i, if i was alone) deal with what was wrong, we(again, or i) could get them back our/my life.

I agreed with Zombie!!!

You never know what you future will be, and you never know what things will force you to do it...
I like it or not, It's always a option...

No to both. Don't plan to have children.

I have no problem adopting (my mom's adopted) every child deserves a loving home. I would never put my own up though, my family and friends are very supportive, so no matter what the situation, there would never be a need to do so.

This...I thankfully have enough relatives that could help in almost every situation...

And i would like to adopt at some point in time...but first i would have to secure a stable situation, emotionally and economically.

I would adopt but not give up for adoption. I could see going through nine months of trauma to my body just to give it away, does not make since to me. 😔
