If you couldn't have a child of your own would you adopt a child from another country?

Yes, i would adopt from China probably, (since they are a hard surpressive government and they are not too nice to female children.

I think that if a child is born here to illegal immigrants, that child is also an illegal immigrant.  We can't keep the baby and put the Mother and Father out of the country.  We we could but hopefully we aren't that callous.  I think that if the parents are here illegally the baby should forfeit its citizenship.  It had no choice, but the pareents did, and chances are they came to this country to give automatic citizenship to a child.  In most foreign countries I may be able to buy a house, but as a non-citizen of that country I am never allowed to own property.  Our nation is primarily owned by Corporations or individuals of foreign soil.  In Mexico, it is illegal to hire an American.  What a wonderful way to be sure that all of your own people get work, and to keep people from overrunning your country.

i have a nephew who was taken from us way too early. I would bring him back to live the life he never got to, to be with his parents that loved him so much, to play catch with his daddy, and have his booboos kissed away by his mommy, and to experience his first love. I love you HF.

my cousin husband does work around the world. a friend of his told him that there was a baby just born in China, if they did not find some one to take the baby by the end of the week..she would be thrown in the river...he got a way to have a friend in china take the baby and my cousin and her husband adopted the baby girl.. a year and a half later they went and did the same for her sister...\n\nI agree that we have so so many children in this country...I would start one where it is warm all the time and near the ocean..so I could teach them to have fun on the beaches and learn to swim...I would need a large farm, because I would want them all..they are so precious...\nwell\ngood luck\nand God Bless\nand smile..it really is good to smile..

Its a living soul, its should not be anybody choice to take that life away, if you can't raise your child, then you should use protection and if accident happen then you should give your child to adoption agency.....

I am not very sure. Is a very difficult choice.\ncould be a selfish one or one for the world.

Sometimes I think it is...because I have been telling my mom all my life that when I get married I wanna adopt, rather than have my own. But my mom wants me to have them because she says its so different to have your own. And that when you have your own they look like you, you love them more, and it's better for yourself. I don't know...but to me, having your own kids is sorta selfish when there are soo many children out there without families. Also, there is a 40 year old lady at my church, who just got custody of her 17 year old step son. He was totally not brought up right with his real mom and he really needs a lot of attention, and all she could think about was having her own child. So now she has a 1 year old, and she's pregnant again, and she totally ignores her step son. To me, that's very selfish!!! I don't know, I guess it depends on the person though.

This's dilemma to your country

You could adopt, there is more to being a parent that sharing DNA.  You would have your female child, and be making her life much better than it was.

There is nothing wrong with it. But it is going to be hard to do if you want to have the children yourself. It is going to be hard for you to get a husband to go along with you sleeping with a lot of different men. Adoption seems like the best way to do it.

a person born in a country not of parent's citizenship but the person can choose the country where he was born

Yes and no. \nNot necessarily but I can see how members of the same racial group would have a better understanding of that group's history, culture and traditions. But that isn't to say that any couple willing to adopt would be just as able to learn those traditions to make sure the child knows it's own history.

I personally don't know if they can't have their own.  They seem to think that adopting these children is going to give them a better life, in some instances this is true, but their money could be better spent giving the money to aid charities who can put it to good use for the children.  It seems to be that a baby from a different country is the new celeb accessory.

Hmmm.  The last time I really thought of this was when I found out that Ex-Boy has the boy-and-girl baby twins he always wanted, but with another woman.  Had I been able to keep babies as well as make them, my life would be *very* different.  I'd still be living in Florida, for one thing.  I wouldn't know how to yell at the cats in Russian the way my wife does.  I'd be helping my mate detangle his long, curly hair instead of shaving her head.  And then I'd be typing bitchy questions about how he takes everything to the taxidermist and how he thinks duct tape can fix everything, including velvet chairs (I'm NOT kidding!), and I'd be bitching all the time instead of just occasionally.

i would say no....if you want child support, come here and apply for citizenship....and then eventually you can pay taxes to help give back to the country.

gee, I'd have to ask my mother how she would feel if i went back to where i came from. a true American is a true mutt, they have all nationality's in them. that would be hard, my dad is past away. he wouldn't be able to take the sperm back. i think my mom would be very uncomfortable if i went back to where i came from. ya she would.\n happy Thanksgiving. love the banana pudding.
