Clearly child adoption isn’t a new topic. Hundreds of links, websites, organizations are working to educate people about adoption. Laws, rules and regulations are enacted to secure the practice. You will get instant information about adoption procedures, the moment you drop a question. You can readily search for the rules and adopt a baby but my motive is to implant the idea of why adoption and what after adoption?

The first step of adoption doesn’t starts at registering with an authorized agency, it’s starts with the implantation of idea inside the adopting parent’s brain. This is the foremost step of adoption. Even now, Infertility is the biggest reason for adoption. Very few beautiful hearted people believe that adoption is the best way to help someone to live their dreams, smile and receive love from their own family even when they have a biological baby. “Someone somewhere is waiting for that family”.

According to survey, many people likes the idea of adoption but are very afraid to implement in their real life. Yes, its a tough decision. A decision that could affect lots of lives. Many obstacles might come your way and stop you, it might be your own family members. But one brave act that could change a life of a child forever is worth the fight. A beautiful heart never thinks of people, it always does what is right according to him. Gifting someone their dreams is the best work one can do for anybody.

Moulding clay is easier when it is soft, once it becomes hard with time shaping it into beautiful scluptures becomes difficult. Same is the case with children. The younger the child, the better will be your bonding. That’s why people choose upto 1 year baby for adoption. But as such there is no rule. You can adopt child according to your specification. People who wants to adopt a baby, generally prefer second child for adoption because they believe they can have gender specification and discrimination misunderstanding chances are less. The first adopted child can feel less loved when second biological baby comes into the picture. So to avoid this, it is advisable that second child must be adopted. Giving education facilities, donations and funds to orphanges is a great help but adoption is permanent. Giving emotional support to the same child is more helpful than that.

Adopting parents are adviced not to hide the adoption issue from the adopted child. Hiding or lying will only make the situation worse. Confront your child, and make him/her understand how lord krishna was born to devaki but given to yashoda who loved him more than her own life. After this, make sure he/she realizes this from core of his/her heart and accepts you as his/her parents forever. But this doesn’t mean giving them whatever they want. He/she must know his/her responsibilities and limits. Parenting adopted children is very risky thing and at the same time very interesting. http://www.amazon.com/Adoption-Best-Gift-handbook-prospective/dp/0983068836

This are some of the best books which adopting parents must try before adopting baby along with the foster care guidelines. The processes involved in adoption are nothing as compared to the strength required in making the decision, fight for it, make mindset, and finally accepting him/her as your family member and parenting him/her in the best way. This is a great achievement. And such brave couples really needs a salute.

I strongly believe that adopting atleast one baby is really neccessary, thinking from a broader perspective. There are many things behind and beyond adoption. Changing directions of a child’s life who couldn’t hope anymore, is the best version of humanity on this planet. Help somebody fix, glow and grow.
