Reply to comment by dotardiscer in Adoption is the 'skip intro' button for parenting. by thedbm
I understand if some prospective adoptive parents prefer not to adopt children who are in foster care (who are eligible for adoption).
But if they make that choice, I would prefer that they not bemoan the time and expense concomitant with that choice.
My husband and I adopted our two sons from foster care when each of them was five years old. It's been challenging, but we didn't choose to become parents because we thought it was the soft option.
