[quote=Anonymous]We adopted domestically and our profile included pictures that showed I am Jewish. DH is not. The southern birthmom did not really care because there were other things she focused on. We are who we are and that is what we presented. Frankly, I think that if you are going to adopt, you need to grapple with how you feel about adopting a baby that does not come from Jewish birthparents because it sounds like that imay be an issue for you. I think that to enter the adoption world, you need a certain openness that perhaps parents of biological children do not really have to grapple with until much later in their child’s life. You need to think long and hard about your own capacity to accept differences that will include bloodline differences. Not everyone has it in them to make the adoption journey and that is okay.[/quote]
