[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I am curious how having an adopted child is different than having a child by birth for a single parent. Once the adoption is done, what is the difference?[/quote] I am single mom with an adopted child and I can sort of answer the question. It depends on the child. A child adopted from an institutional settings will have some degree of issues so that can translate into having to run to multiple therapy appointments, needing to pay out of pocket for care, etc and then just being generally very tired from all the extra that goes along with that.
