[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP, here's an alternative perspective. My DD's nanny is 25 y.o., and about 4 years ago someone abandoned their 1.5 y.o. daughter with her. She became that child's foster parent, and just last week was finally able to formally adopt her. At her age, as an adoptive single parent, she has a long road ahead of her with respect to relationships, finishing school, etc. But she's an amazing mom (way more responsible than I was at her age), and she says that her DD is the best thing that ever happened to her. I think life works out in many different ways, and no one's is perfect. We struggled for years to have children. I'm happy now, but I often mourn the life I thought I would have...so your feelings are understandable. I don't think your chance for a partner is over...but I do think you already have a family.[/quote] What an amazing story.[/quote]
