[quote=Anonymous]We struggled with this. We each have siblings but for various reasons (addiction struggles, volatile marriages, etc...) none of them are people we would want raising our kids. So we chose my best friend and her husband, who are godparents to our kids (as I am to their daughter) and who have a warm, loving, stable home. THey also live near one set of grandparents so our kids would have family close by. It's not a perfect solution, and we will revisit it when our kids get older perhaps, as relocating them in their teens would be different than relocating them as infants or elementary age. But I'm not sure our end result would be significantly different - we still wouldn't trust our family members with them.[/quote]
