[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I wish you had not mentioned money, it really sounds like you are out to purchase. What is your medical condition? Is  it related to mental health, or someting cronic like ms or aids? I also think you are starting to be on the older side, not that that is a problem, but combined with the health issue. And of course the speed in which you started talking about money. You are also very specific about getting an infant[/quote]

You sound very insensitive!  Most people want an infant (which is why it is hard to adopt one) in order to avoid many of the emotional problems that come with older children (an unfortunate reality).  While older children need homes too, and it is great that people adopt them, in my experience as a social worker in this field, it is sometimes so difficult to parent these older kids, and the whole family suffers as a result (adopted kid included).  OP mentioned having $, great that they have it because adoption costs alot!  And most birth parents prefer a family that can support their kid comfortably (many kids agre placed due to lack of finances).  Think before you comment.  [/quote]
