[quote=Anonymous]OP, we adopted. If I did not marry, I would have adopted as a single person. I have no regrets. Our adoption was a nightmare - took many years, a lot of money and just as we were giving up, it happened. Our child has significant special needs and I will say I cannot imagine doing it as a single parent as I ended up leaving my job and we had 4-5 day therapy appointments as well as a special preschool 30 minutes away. I have no regrets and would do it all over again but just make sure you can afford the private therapies and are in a job with flexibility (I was not). I'd go for the China adoption. You sound like the perfect mom for that six year old. There are so many resources in our area too.[/quote]
