Reasons For Adopting a Child
Many people associate child
adoption with infertility, although many people who can have
children, or already do are adopting children more and more.
Some reasons for adopting a child, that are not for the
traditional reason of infertility, are as follows. Some people
who already have a few children of the same sex, for instance,
might desire to have another in hopes of having the opposite
sex. However, taking the chance of getting pregnant again isn't
a very surefire way to get the sex that you desire. Therefore,
if a family really desires a child of a certain sex, adoption
might be the right option for them. A couple might also chose to
adopt if they have only have one child. Perhaps they have
decided that they don't want to have another child naturally,
but they don't want there child to be lonely. Adopting a child
will provide a companion for your child and will help get
another innocent child into a loving, nurturing home. A single
person who wants to experience the joys of parent hood might
also choose to adopt. Instead of being artificially inseminated,
a woman for instance might choose to adopt a child in need, and
help the cause of two lives.
Some people also feel that the world has no need for
more
children in it, and is becoming over populated. For this reason
they may chose to adopt because it helps get a child into a good
home so they have a better chance for a good future. Some people
also might have genetic diseases that they don't want to give to
a child, so they might chose to adopt a child in need, so they
aren't risking the birth of an unhealthy child. Or, you may have
a friend or relative in need of a home for their own child. In
order to help them out without taking the child out of the
family completely, you may chose to adopt them as your own. This
way the adopted
child can stay close to their family, as well as be provided
for by a capable, loving home. All of the above are excellent
reasons to consider adoption before you jump into pregnancy.
Remember, child adoption is not right for everyone, but if it is
right for you, you will be providing yourself with the joys of
parenthood as well saving a child from a possibly bleak future.
