Sara - just wanted to send you support. Both of the earlier posters have given you good advice and are a wealth of good information.
The only thing I wanted to add is this: in my situation my parents were VERY interested in adoption only because, in their belief, a child NEEDS a two parent home. However, since my son is now 19, they see the pain of being a relinquished child from his point of view. It's not always as simple as one parent - two parents.
Many two parent homes become one parent homes. Please do the research. You may not change your mind, and that is fine, but the one phrase that I hear often on here, "adoption is a permanent solution to a temporary problem." That is so true.
Best of luck to you!
