We can say that Family is almost complete if their is a child inside their home. Some of my friends is telling that even they are tired after working the whole day when they got home and see their children they are happy even they forgot their problems as well. I want to experience this and curious how important children is.

Are you telling us that just because someone says that children complete a family you plan to experience it and are curious! Ridiculous. Unless you have a desire within you, I think this is just going to ruin someones life. Think about it. Family is NOT what others tell you to do, it is what comes from within you, you heart and your soul.

It would hurt a child so much if you adopt them and then dont want them . It must really be something you want and its not as easy and full of flowers like some people would want you to think . It will put strain on your relationship with your partner also and less time for yourself. So if its not something you want from the bottom of your heart I would hate for you to adopt a child and not love them as your own flesh and blood. I have the desire you have , I want to adopt child one day so I can provide a better life for them , and love them and give them a parents . That is a plan I have for a very long time . Think about it long

silverfox Well to adopt a child is not an easy way it takes time, money, effort, after 5 years of thinking and praying for this. My decision is final is to adopt a child i know its difficult to raise a child which is not came in your blood. I know it is also a blessings to help those less fortunate who doesn't feel the love of their real parents. Exactly, I need to provide her needs not just temporal but also her spiritual needs I want that child feel that she is a child of God by means of taking care of her very well.

Hi! It is not clear from your post if you are already married or still to get married. In both the situation the response will differ. If you are unmarried - In that case it is not easy to bring up a kid as a single parent and you need to work at double the rate to look after the kid. If you are married - In this case, you could first try to have a biological child and if unfortunately you do not succeed, then you could go for adoption. All the best.

There has never been a role that I've had in my life that has been more fulfilling than being a mother. I love being a mother more than I love anything in this world. My two children might not be perfect, but they are perfect to me. I think that it is great that you are planning on adopting a baby girl. Not only will you have the opportunity to enjoy the pleasure of being a mother, you will also be giving a forever home to a child that might not have the opportunity to be one if it wasn't for your giving heart.

yeah, having a child is amazing. though you cant be you anymore after having a child, but then you will realize that it is worth. your pain n sacrifice are paid off when you see your child grows or even be a smart one and gain many achievements. i never imagine how my feeling will be if i have a child. when i got married i wanted to delay in having baby till i was ready to be a mom. but my husband insisted me to have a baby. and just because i wanted to make him happy i actually be pregnant then. i was not happy with my pregnancy. i got angry easily and i thought that my husband didnt care of me too much. then i delivered my baby in a very painful struggle. i raised my baby by my own. my husband didnt seem to care of my struggling. i suffered from severe baby blue syndrome. days went by. today i love my child very much. i dont feel regret at all though i was not happy in the beginning i had her. i know i should have hard struggle before feel real love like today. im so sorry i tell you this. i think it doesnt match with your topic. but when i read your discussion, only this story comes on my mind. being mother is the most precious moment in every woman. you should feel it and your painful efforts are worth for all happiness you'll get..

I really appreciate your story in which I have lesson to learn with your pregnancy and your struggling. I know it is not easy to get pregnant especially when your husband doesn't care of your struggling. You know it seems I don't like to get pregnant if ever getting feared of because of your experience. Well I'm pretty sure that you are happy with your child now despite of those experience you have had its really paid off. Truly, Mother is a noble calling given by God to all woman here on earth. God Bless humairaku.

Hi, Congrats if you are either planning a baby or adopting a baby girl. Little babies are definitely the most entertainers full time and it is a blessing to watch them grow little by little. I have two children in their teen and pre-teen but though with full time working, me & my husband missed their day activities for a while as they were at Creche. Be prepared to give them full attention and love and care. All the best.

Thanks Viju! Exactly now that i am planning to adopt a child actually i think it million times because i need to lessen my outdoor activities just to take care of her. I need to eliminate those i am supposed to priorities in life. For me children it seems like an investment when they grow up and taking care of them then in return they are with you from the rest of your life. Tanks for sharing your experience as a mother.

Good suggestion that you have had given in your friend. Well I agree with you too. I have a lot of friends who is adopted a child. I see them happy while taking care of their adopted. They treated that child as their own blood. I love seeing them playing even roaming around outside the mall well the happiness that child could give never paid off of anything. have a nice day

Hi friend, children's are the real treasure in our life, we forget about our tensions and worries while seeing the smile of an innocent child. I have two little sons and interested in spending my time with them. There is nothing wrong in adopting a kid, if you don't have any kids, surely you will start to love your kid and give your utter most affection to it.

Children are a blessing to make a family complete. But it is also takes a lot of work,patience and money when raising a child. There have to be decisions that must be taken into consideration too. But if you think you can handle making this life altering decision, then you know what lies ahead of you. Some people think that having and raising a child is easy, once the child is born and you have to take care of it 24/7, it's not as easy as what they think. Hope you have taken all things into consideration and if you're willing to take that step,then CONGRATULATIONS!

Exactly it takes a lot of patient, money, effort everything that a child needs. I was reading a book about raising a child i know its not easy i am thinking of my situation that i have had when I get the baby i am so excited despite of that excitement well fear is there but I need to be strong in my decision. Thanks for sharing your experience as a mother. I love reading your response.

Well, I feel children are so important in a family. First, when there is no child in a family, sometimes the adults in the family feel boring, and they quarrel often, but when there are children, they spend more time on children and they feel full, so they don't mind little stuff in their daily life, and they won't quarrel if it's not a big deal. Second, though it's tired to bring up a child, but it's worth it. When you don't feel well, your children will say some warm-hearted words to you. I remember that when I have a cold, my daughter knows it and she takes some medicine for me and ask me to take it, I feel happy for that. Third, I think it's a success for us to bring up a healthy, successful person in our way, though the way is very long and tired, it is also full of love and happiness. it's a good topic. Have a nice day!

hi, yes you are right,a family is completely perfect if it has a child inside of the house,that is why most of the couple who have a problem in giving birth of a child usually adopt a child or baby just to have kids in their house,having a kids have a big role in a relationship of couple.

Hi, It is very good decision of adopting a baby girl. Orphan girl would get a good mother and can spend life happily. Love that baby very much and make her a good human being like you. Child adoption is not easy. you have to make sacrifices for raising that girl like real mother. Best of luck!

It is good feeling to have a baby though I don't have a baby as yet but we are planning on one. When adoption is concerned make sure you really love the baby as her parent would or as your own child. Those friends of yours might be having their own children and it might be different from adopting. Just how I think, though adoption is very good. For for it if you are prepared. Thanks for sharing and have a wonderful day ahead..

Yes, I agree with you. Even if I am still single I can say that children can make parents to be happy without doing anything just be there with them. I said so because every time we were complete in the family it seems our parents were very happy and contented. And as their daughter I can also absorb their happiness I mean their happiness is also contagious. Most celebrities also adopt a child because according to them it is a lucky charm.

Yes, having a child at home makes a difference. You can hear the laughter back at home. You have something to look forward to at the end of the tiring day from work. It is really different, the house is brighter, the house delimits the fighting and shouting, everything you can think of "peace" in the house and among members. You have something to put your little you if you like. but having a baby is not an easy job. having a baby is not just that. It is commitment.... for life. from the moment you take her until .... but it is a noble act of generosity. Not all people would want to take care of someone else's child for no reason. NOt all people would want to take the ball and be responsible of holding it forever. Mariemay... I salute you.. You are a heroine and an angel. I give you 10 winks for this act. Continue your desire. it is right

I adopted a baby girl last year and now she is turning 2 years old this April. Although she is not my really my real child but I do not feel that difference at all. She gives me joy and satisfaction just by seeing her growing and knowing a lot of new things each day. I have three older brothers and they are all single without any kids. I am married however we do not have a child yet and I don't plan to get pregnant soon. Our adopted girl is the only baby in our house. I am happy knowing that my parents are really enjoying their time raising the kid. You should not hesitate on adopting a child if you know you can afford it. Adopting is another way of helping. I know that blessings will come by doing this kind of good act.
