      @ambersinclairofficial 6 месяцев назад

      @xriotx3005 same here I wouldn't mind children by blood but less of that and would love more adopted children since there's more need of that. I want to adopt since I was in foster care at 16-18 and I saw so many abandoned children who need homes. I also want to adopt in my mid-late twenties. I have a lot of brothers and a Good family which I think would love on any kids I adopt and I have a wonderful biblical church community that would support it as well.
      I LOVE hearing men say they want to adopt as it's not as often as I hear women say it. I love your heart for kiddos 🤍

    I am 16 and I plan on being single because as much as a relationship can turn out amazing and enjoyable so much can go wrong in it and I don't need the stress of it! Along with that, I plan on adopting kids to help them and provide a loving, caring home for them! I also plan on working in the medical field to save lives and doing a bunch of side jobs it'll be amazing! I cannot wait to help this world! I know it's waiting for me! Words of encouragement and prayers for my successful future would be much appreciated!❤️🙏😁

    I am applying for adoption through agencies and the stigma is a huge obstacle. Many countries don't accept single parent adoptions. A few countries only let single people adopt special needs child or a child age 6 and up.
    A lot of agencies don't even want to fight for single women.... So I find myself fighting alone, going over the adoption agencies, and speaking to the orphanages.

    I am 32 years old, single no kids and I really don't have any hopes with dating and I am not attracted to any men I come in contact with for long term. I am possibly going to adopt before having a child of my own. My only issue is that I own a studio condo, and it won't be enough room for a kid, Ill have to rent it out to buy a small house or another condo. This is the only thing holding me back, since I am sure they won't allow me to adopt even If I can somehow separate the place to give the kid privacy.

    What is the best child age to adopt as a single person? Some ppl are telling me a baby bc you can mold the child better. But I would prefer a child that isn't a baby bc I don't want to deal with a daycares etc. What us your thoughts? And do you think a private or state adoption is better?

      Sometimes if the child is under 2 they can share a bedroom with you, but usually if they're any older than that they need their own separate space.

    Hey just wondering are their any resources out their for adult singles who have a disability, such as possibly having ADHD or autism? I am not planning on adopting until about 6 to 8 years from now due to needing to get my life together and go to counseling to better myself first. Is it possible to adopt a child if you have a disability? Also I work as a pediatric home health care nurse and love working with disabled kids, so I dream of adopting a disabled or possibly medically fragile child. I just wondering if anyone has ever gone through this while being neurodivergent. I have not been diagnosed yet but I most likely have ADHD and Autism. I am a 29 year old female who hopes to start the adoption process when I'm in my mid-thirties. Also I have never been in a relationship before due to having never been asked out by anyone on a date. I think I'm on the asexual spectrum. I'm not overly bothered by being single I just want to date once to see if it's for me, but I hate all the drama that comes along with dating and being in a relationship.
