ElicBxn @ElicBxn (64169) • United States 6 Oct 16

This isn't my last discussion, but my last Mary Pearl one. I've talked about my former job where I worked with the Voluntary Adoption Registry in Texas. I think I've also talked about this one lady who made one co-worker cry,...

Had a Lovely Chat With My Little Brother!

Hate2Iron @Hate2Iron (15724) • Canada 5 Sep 16

It started out as a lovely chat until he reminded me that I'm 20 years older than he is. I have forgotten that as age seems to disappear as you get older. On the other hand he always refers to me as his little sister, so I guess...

Complicated Family

SViswan @SViswan (12051) • India 9 Jul 11

With adoptions, surrogates and people conceiving using donor sperms increasing, family trees today are beginning to look more like a tangled forest. Don't get me wrong. I am not against any of these. My concern is for future...

TheRealDawn @dawnald (85137) • Shingle Springs, California 15 Dec 08

Took my two foster kittens into the adoption center on Saturday. When we left at 1 PM there hadn't been any adoptions at all and no phone calls all weekend. So when we went back in on Sunday, we though maybe neither one had been...

I am against adoptions

ronaldinu @ronaldinu (12422) • Malta 19 Sep 08

Are you pro or against homosexual adoptions?

Shareaza @Shareaza (315) • Sweden 22 Oct 07

Turning Down Adopters Can Be Hard...

Pigglies @Pigglies (9329) • United States 28 May 07

It seems like I should be used to turning people down by now. Generally, I don't have much of a problem with it. If someone just plain isn't a great home, I'm not afraid to tell them so. If someone would be an okay home, but I...

Would you rubberstamp homosexual adoptions?

tishabest @tishabest (602) • Belgium 11 Sep 06

I'm not sure exactly how I feel on this issue. Generally I don't see why not. Heterosexual parents aren't doing so good...more than 1/3 divorce (38% to be exact). So why shouldn't they be given this chance? If there was a...
