Does it sound like we should adopt??
I always thought I would adopt after I brought over two babies for two families. (I was the person who brought them from Korea to the US.) My husband and I agreed and we even started looking into adoption agencies when we got pregnant last year. Now, I'm worried about whether or not I will treat the two children equally, and I'm just nervous and not sure anymore.
What I'd like to know is, did other parents go through this kind of anxiety? I'd love to hear any advice.. Last edited by Sniffles : 05-21-2007 at 08:26 PM. Reason: agency discussion |

I had two biologicial children before I adopted my two younger children. There is no diffrence in the love I feel for them and I do treat them equally (except for age differences) The love is the same, if anything the adopted children are more precious becuase it was so much work to get them!

We have one bio child and one adopted from Guatemala. Both experiences have changed us and stretched us in ways that we could not have imagined! Our first child was "daddy's boy", he likes to cuddle, etc with mama, but definitely prefers my husband to me. Our second and I definitely have a bond that I never would have imagined. The only difference in my love for them is the same that there would be between bio siblings...sometimes the bond is different between different children, different personalities, etc. That being said, they are both mine and I love them more than I can say.
