[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]So, again, kudos to this wonderful family to adopting a child that most people would never even consider parenting due to the risks and difficulties of adopting an older child from a Russian orphanage. [/quote] Are you serious? [b]Adopting is a selfish thing. You do it because you want a child of your own. It is about the a-parents selfish needs[/b]The neighbors do not need to place that family on a pedestal because they adopted, and the adoptee does not need to feel grateful for them for adopting her[/quote] This is really funny given the fact that people are always telling people who try IVF that they are selfish and they should "just adopt" because it is the unselfish thing to do. Damned if you do, damned if you don't. [/quote]
