I think Adoptions great for both parties invovled for the Parents especially if they could never have kids on thier own and for the Kids because they finally get the family they wanted and I just gotta point out thats one of the reasons I MAJORILY look up to Nicole Kidman BOTH of her kids are adopted

Question

I don't understand why you would ask "yay or nay". Why would anyone be against adoption?

I used to have a friend who got adopted when she was a week old.
It must be quite hard for someone adopted to always to have a lot of questions that you would want to know the answers to.

I guess it is because I don't understand why the majority of people see adoption as a positive thing, yet they abort a baby. I mean, have the child and put them up for adoption...

We were talking about this entire thing a few days ago at school so it's just on my mind now.

One of my ex boyfriends is adopted but he has no idea who his natural parents are because it was a closed adoption. He was interested in finding out what his nationalities are and his medical history but was having a hard time doing it. I agree with adoption 100% but I feel that the adopted child should have full access to their biological family info when he/she becomes an adult.

I agree with exactly what you said. My mom's old neighbor adopted a girl from Guatemala(sp?).

I am totally for adoption! There are so many loving couples out there who would love to have a child, but can't have one biologically. I wish women with unwanted pregnancies would do the selfless thing of giving their baby a loving home instead of being selfish and killing it.

I totally agree. There's no reason why any baby should have to be aborted if it's not wanted. It's not fair to the child. And, with the exception of rape, all women should accept the responsibility that goes along with getting pregnant and having a baby, since they were the ones who chose to get pregnant, anyway. I think adoption is a great thing to do, as well. I've even been thinking of adopting kids, when I am an adult, from some poor country like Africa or something, because I believe poor kids should get a chance, too.
