I'm hoping to adopt twins, OR 2 (non-related)infants from Vietnam next year and have been sharing my hopes and asking questions in various chatrooms for several months now.
I am amazed at the negative responses I have gotten about adopting 2 children at the same time as a single women! I normally I would let most of this roll of my back like water on a duck...but now it's starting to tick me off!!
I was informed by a "lady" in chat(on another site) that I would be abusing my(future) children if I didn't adopt them seperately and bond to them individually. And this is the 2nd time this same argument has come up...
I understand that some people have issues with what has been termed virtual twinning...but to say that I would be abusing my children??? I'm not seeing what difference a little blood is here...My children at 3-9 months aren't going to know they aren't blood relation to each other
Maybe it's the fact that I'm Single?? I'm just shocked at how rude and unkind some people have been about it...from people who do know anything about adoption it's one thing...but these are other adoptive parents.
I'm getting possitive responses too...but the negative ones seem to stand out more!
Thanks for the vent
