I read through your website and it made me want to be a part of your family!!!
When I first heard you were looking to adopt I was so happy. I was ecstatic to think of the lucky child who would land in your arms and grow in your home, amidst the light that you emit as individuals and a couple. And you can not even imagine the joy that your child will bring to you. It's miraculous! Congratulations! xo Jody

You two have been opening your home and your hearts to others for so many years...I know so many people who have been touched by your compassion, generosity and kindness (myself included!) It seems only natural to welcome a child into your lives. May the joy you've given so many others be returned to you in spades!
Love, Kate VanD

Nice - one question - why did you wait until you could not have children of your own to marry and start a family? Not that I think you did this, but it sure looks like it.

I am an adoptee and although you seem like a nice couple, so did my a-rents; lets say once the doors closed it wasn't so pretty. I'm not saying that you would be abusive toward the child in any way so please don't take it that way. My question is, why adoption? Have you tried ALL of the resources to conceive your own child? Also I was not too fond of your statement saying that you would love "YOUR" child because well lets face it, the child is not yours. Yes you will care for it, but you did not carry the child and nurse it. Adoption is a hard decision for the biological mother to make. Would you allow the mother to have contact with the child? Would you talk to the child about his/her mother and explain why he/she was adopted? I will be honest, but to me it seems like you want to have the "perfect" family with the child and the picket white fence and the puppy. Like my mom Lori(biological mom and only mom regardless of the adoption) stated why did you wait so long to start a family? There are so many kids out there in the foster system that need parents yet you seem to want a baby, why is that? Would you consider adopting a preteen or even a teen? Are you willing to tell the child that he/she is adopted and go through the "you're not my mother" phase? The hate and anger that will most likely follow? Maybe not towards you but the biological mother. Why create a web page for adoption when there are plenty of foster homes that have "unwanted" and misunderstood children?

*NOW - THINK ABOUT THIS - THERE WERE WONDERFUL PICTURES AND SMILING FACES...AND THESE PEOPLE ARE IN THEIR 30s - PAST THE POINT WHERE THEY COULD HAVE EASILY HAD CHILDREN....THEIR CAREERS CAME FIRST. THEY HAVE LINKS ON THEIR PARENTING STYLE - EXCUSE ME? HOW DO THEY KNOW? THEY HAVE NEVER PARENTED.
THEIR STATEMENTS WERE ABOUT THEM, THEIR CHILD - BUT THE FACT IS THEY DON'T HAVE A CHILD AND BECAUSE OF THIS THEY WANT SOMEONE ELSE'S CHILD....MAYBE IF THEY HAD NOT BEEN SO BUSY CAMPING AND ACTING AND SWIMMING AT MALIBU, THEY MIGHT HAVE HAD THEIR OWN CHILDREN - RATHER THAN STEALING ANOTHER WOMAN'S CHILD!
GIVE ME YOUR CHILD! - the link to the blog that these adopters have put up!
This Blog is Authored by First Mothers and Adoptees to enlighten and teach and hopefully help others to see adoption in a realistic light. This is a new blog dedicated to the First Mothers and Adoptees of the past. We, as a group, are the silent members of the Adoption Triad. Our voices are not often heard and we have nothing to gain or lose in this process.

I literally laughed out loud, because I was thinking “this couple is going to be too busy making out with each other to be bothered with taking care of kids!!!!!!!”
ReplyDeleteAfter reading this I can't even look at their blog. It seriously makes me want to throw up just what was posted here. What makes one person a better parent, age, money, marital status? I think not. i have seem plenty of woman single parent and do it better than most married couples.
ReplyDeleteI do know amazing people that want to adopt, but I am not sending any woman under the bus so they could raise her baby as their own.
I will never hand out a pass along card for adoption. Why help people buy a child? I would try my best to help any woman raise her own child but NEVER try to influence anyone to be just a "birth" (I hate that word) mother.
