Adoption Support Group
Adoption is the legal act of permanently placing a child with a parent or parents other than the birth parents. Whether you are looking to adopt, putting your child up for adoption, parenting an adopted child, or just thinking about it, this is the place to discuss.
I am a mum of 3 and married and would desperately love to adopt. I am making a choice not to have more children of my own as I suffer severe post natal depression when I have babies but am desperate to have two more children preferably siblings as i feel they might be happier together but have no experience of adoption and no idea of where to start. I'm from the uk does anyone have any advice or info the could pass on or their own expereinces as children or adoptive parents. I have so much love to give and really can't bear to not have a bigger family. Thank you.

I would start by looking into different kinds of adoption. Do lots of research. Call around different agencies and lawyers. I would make sure I had all the information so I could make an educated decision.

congrats to you on knowing yourself and your limits and I hope this works out well for you. I don't know if social services is called the same thing in the UK but also check with them and like MomofTwo said research ALL your options prior to making a decision, as with anything nowadays there's ALOT of options out there.

I miss traveling with my husband. Has anyone found a specific site regarding cruising for widow/widowers or any sightseeing trips. Not interested in being with couples and kids,,,I realize a cruise ship will have a portion size of families and couples, but perhaps they also put together a part of the cruise ship for groups of widows/widowers????

A deep longing accompaniedby the deepest Love some days. The heavy fog mayreturn and the next day, it may recede.Once again, it's...
