What would you do if She..?

Re: What would you do if She..?

^PCG, that's not fair. They're being honest and reflective. I don't think adoption is something one should jump into just because it sounds good (as is the case with parenthood in general). It's a lifelong commitment with major consequences; you have to make sure you can face them, or else risk truly hurting a lot of people.

Re: What would you do if She..?

Pyari, that’s a very hurtful response you have given. Normally i am thick skinned to these kind of replies…but this is below the belt. If you knew the pain we had to go through to make a decision not to adopt, you would not say such words. But you seem to be still young and idealistic. Hope you don’t have to burst your bubble some day. ANyway its better to be honest and say you can’t do something rather than do it just to please people with your kind of visions in life. And as for your “keep them coming” response…please note that we had our 2nd kid with difficulty. Its not easy to keep them coming. If you dont agree then thats fine but don’t ooze sarcasm and bitterness in your response.

PS Pyari, i would not have adopted even if I did not have my second kid.

Re: What would you do if She..?

PCG, your post was right after mine so I assume you were talking about me if not please disregard.

It's none of your business but we were thinking after already having two beautiful girls. We did not produce another one due to our own choice. I still think its better not to adopt if you cannot do the justice. If you can by all means go ahead and adopt. I cannot think any single more rewarding thing than this.

Re: What would you do if She..?

You know that's pretty rude and hurtful and mean. Normallly you make sense, but it's posts like this and your unapologetic attitude that really gives you a bad reputation. Grow up.

Re: What would you do if She..?

I think if you follow the posts she was referring to me as I "thanked God for giving me a second child" and she used Thank God in her post. Of course she should have had the guts to quote me.

Funny, she goes on about her freedom to choose wheher or not she wants to wear hijab and yet cannot give us the same freedom to choose if we want our own child or adopt. She appears to be as intolerant and narrow-minded as the people she openly criticises...and here's the icing...she's in complete denial.
