I look at this differently. I was in my early 20's when we adopted our first child. Mid-twenties when we had our second. Being a young mom is WONDERFUL!!! I noticed alot of you were talking about International adoption. We went thedomestic route and had very young birthmom's. They loved the fact that we were young and could relate to them more than someone their mom's age. My mom is now 48 and actively is involved in my kid's lives. Some of the people in our training classes were as old as my mom and this was going to be their first child. I am a strong believer in you can have it all. I have wonderful healthy children, a strong marriage, and a good education. I lack compassion for some of these couples who wait to get married, start their career, travel, etc and then find out it is too late to have a biological family. Money and careers don't matter to a child. I know that is not the case for all couples, but we have met several who "just waited too long"
