[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]You could do foster care. Chances are a baby would be reunited with its family, and if you did get the chance to adopt you would know a lot about the situation and could decide at that point. You would also get subsidized child care and Medicaid and a stipend, and you would not have to go through pregnancy and childbirth, so you could use leave more sparingly for the child's appointments and court dates. Foster care is a deeply messed up system, working with deeply messed up families, so it isn't something to take on lightly. But someone needs to be a foster parent and maybe it can be you.[/quote] OP. This is actually a great idea - my partner was in foster care for several years and would totally be on board. I would likely wait until my kids are older (like you said, it can be a messed up system) but I do think it would be fulfilling. [/quote]
