Ok...point blank I wasn't trying to be rude, but you did ask for opinions & I gave you mine.

I still do wonder about entering into an agreement with a person that you are unsure about. I know for a fact that people can change, but we aren't talking about a situation that you're already in, we're talking about a situation that you will be inviting into your life.

I'm a birthmom (as if that isn't obvious ) & I know that I wouldn't enter an adoption with an adoptive family that I had misgivings about - no matter how much I liked them, no matter what they promised for the future - this is a situation that will be there for life, so why not enter into one where at least initially you feel 100% comfortable.

Hopingforachild, I know that you are new, if my postings were rude or hurtful to you, please accept my apologies - adoption is a hard thing from all perspectives - & I surely don't want to be a person who has chased you away from a community that has so much to offer.
