Choosing to Adopt
So why do we choose to put ourselves through such heartache and pain, followed by hope and more pain?Could it be for the love of children?Or maybe it is the fact, that after years of trial and error through miscarriages and going through IVF testing we've had enough.
We make a decision that not only affects us in the process, but a little child somewhere in the world and others along the way.
Adopting a child is not to be looked at lightly and often involves a long journey.
Prospective adoptive parents will have to be screened for their ability to provide a safe environment for a child.
Also finances play a huge role in ones ability to partake in such a task.
Expect to pay in the high thousands to adopt, before you even take delivery of the child.
Your background history and that of your partner will have to be spotless.
You will have to be financially strong enough to provide for the need of your new arrival.
There are many things to consider.
For example, the choices of were to adopt a child from.
What kind of child?Country, race, age, male or female will all have to be considered well before the process starts.
As the choices are so plentiful in the adoption world, it will require some hard decisions on your part.
You will find yourself reading pages upon pages of information, contracts and looking at pictures until you have just about had enough.
In the end, however it will be all worth it to you.
As you are providing a great future for a child that in normal circumstances might not even survive where it came from.
As an adopting parent, please make sure you carefully select and screen the agency or agent you desire to deal with.
Ask for official approval, permits and the likes.
After all, you don't want to run the chances of adopting from an illegal agency!There are many websites that deal with these issues, where you can check for information regarding such providers, including any complaints known.
Unfortunately, we are still experiencing child abduction across international borders.
So please make sure you are dealing with a legal and well-known agency.
Otherwise, you might run the risk of heavy fines or even prison.
Stating "you didn't know you were dealing with a crook" will not get you in the clear!You will be just as guilty, as if you committed the crime of haggling for children illegally.
Every country has different laws regarding adoption.
You will need to inform yourself about these.
Also you might want to look into vaccination requirements.
Your kid might need specific vaccinations before you can take him/her home.
For all the trouble it takes, you will be able to have your own family after all by adopting a child.
You should make sure that you allow your child to grow up being proud of its heritage, wherever that might be from.
If you can, teach your child the customs of its tribe/race.
Take it back on vacation so it will grow up being proud of where it came from.
It will thank you for it later down the track and love you even more!
