Single Black Women Please Apply
Are you a single black woman? Have you dreamed of having your own child but just haven't found the perfect mate yet? Is your biological clock ticking louder every year? Well, adoption may be an option for you. There are a lot of children out there waiting to be adopted. For some, they are a product of a not-so-perfect environment, potentially as a result of an unplanned pregnancy or from families that could no longer care for them. The one thing that they have in common is that they are need of someone to love them with a love that will last a lifetime.
Adoption centers are seeking out single black women who are ready to step into parenting roles. Historically, adoption was for married people. It was sometimes kept a "secret" because couples may have suffered from fertility issues. That was then. In our society today, adoption is considered a very real alternative to having your own biological child. It is an option that is open to adults regardless of their current marital status.
As society places less of an emphasis on marriage, some women are feeling more liberated to explore adoption on their own. Black women have been considered the bedrocks of the black community with regard to keeping their families together. They are thought to be strong women because they are generally less dependent on males and many are willing to help each other to care for their children. Some take on the roles of "godmother" or non-biological "aunts" as they embody and practice the guiding principle of the African proverb, "It takes a village to raise a child."
Black women who are seriously considering adoption should be financially secure, emotionally stable, and ready to accept the full responsibility of handling a household and child. They can expect to build a supportive network for helping to care for a child, and be prepared to change their lifestyle to allow for proper growth and socialization for a child. Of course, unconditional love and a personal goal of providing the best possible life for a child should be driving factors in your decision. But, for any woman that desires to bring a child into her life, knowing that there will be someone that will look to you, love you, and call you that all-endearing name "Mommy", the ends will definitely justify the means. This is especially true when adoption is the means by which you are able to fulfill your life's dream of motherhood.
Many birthparents are open to placing their baby in a single parent home, and there are adoption centers that will be advocates for you. Some centers, such as the Lifetime Adoption, even offer adoption grants to black single adoptive mothers to help defray the cost of adoption. Single women needn't worry about being turned away simply because they will parent alone.
Today, with so many children needing loving, caring people to help them to become amazing adults, the message is loud and clear: Single Black Women Please Apply.
