[quote=Anonymous]We have two kids, one whom we adopted and one who was born into our family.  And, no, we don't regret having either of them.  Despite their imperfections and our own, we are a very happy family.   Our kids are a gift from God and we try very hard to be worthy of them.  Each is an individual whom I feel very privileged to know and from whom I've learned much.  (Of course, this is when they're not driving me absolutely crazy! :)

My only regret concerning our adoption is that I wish so much we could meet our DD's birth parents, or somehow let them know that she is a beautiful, joyful girl who lives life with zest and gratitude.  I pray that somehow they will come to know this.

As far as parents who have kids just to complete their image, believe me I know what you're talking about.  I've seen it, but only among parents with children to whom they're biologically related.  The adoptive parents I know had to work so much harder to have their kids -- I've never seen one who did it for status.   [/quote]
