Thank you for sharing your story. I agree that the agency did a disservice to you and the little boy. I was adopted in Mexico as an infant. As an adult, I can say I never had that urge to have children. In the 2000s , there was a brief period when my husband and I decided to actually try.That lasted for about two months with pills to help out the cause. Besides that, I was ok not having any. My husband is also is a kid magnet and that was the only reason why I decided to try. I've always said to myself that if I ever had the NEED, that desire to have a child, then I would adopt, and I would adopt an older child. NOW, I'm almost 52 and there is no way I would adopt a small child at my age, I've always been way too selfish with my time. At this rate, if I suddenly feel the need to feel maternal to a human, I would host a foreign exchange student for a semester. 😆
Thank you for sharing yours. Silver lining about not having kids is that we can pickup and leave at anytime. We still have that small tick of wanting, but I’m not sure it outweighs the freedom.
So sorry to hear that 😞 my husband and I got blessed with our daughter she came into our life when she was 2 months old and she’s now about to be 12 years old. Parenting it’s difficult specially for gay parents we have been through so much my daughter now wants to get to know her mom that is difficult is much. But you guys did the right thing and if it’s meant to be, it will be I’m pretty sure you guys would be great parents. 🤗🤗🤗🤗🤗🤗🤗🤗🤗
Thank you so much for your kind words. Although we wish the outcome was different, we still hold on to a thread of faith that if it is meant to be, it will be. We both know we could give a child all our love if it happens. I’m sure you both are great parents to her, I can only imagine how difficult it is for you knowing she wants to get to know her mom.
