I have a friend that is adopted. Her family is strongly pro-adoption (they also have 3 biological children). She is very scared adoption because of her fear of the bparents coming back to reclaim.
This has never been an issue in her family; however, she is a fiercely loyal mother...and when she attaches to someone, she cannot let go.
Her fear stems from constant media coverage over the "unfortunate" situations that occur in adoption that go on for years in the legal situations. (the shows on Lifetime, and such)
I'm not saying I agree with her --just offering a reason for not wanting to adopt.
I agree with the above poster--that although biology is not an issue in our family regarding "who we could love as our own"--I applaud anyone that knows their limitations and chooses not to go the adoption route.
