Guys, would you prefer adopting a baby or rather have your own? Why?

I prefer having my own since I enjoy being pregnant. Also I plan on being a surrogate too.

Adoption is a lot harder then people think I knew a family that had 4 kids of their own and wanted to adopt a child and they wouldn't allow the family to do it since they already had a family of their own. There are also tons and tons of rules and cost lots of money. So a lot of times adopting is harder then it seems. Only times I've seen it work is when they take in a foster care and the birth mom no longer wants the child so they can then adopt it.

I'm extremely scared of the whole concept of pregnancy and birth, beside don't know how my body would react if i ever get pregnant since i have a condition that would require me to go to the doctor constantly to get my medication adjusted.

So my boyfriend and I decided that if we wanna have kids some day then we are going to adopt.

Srry about ur condition... but yes it is always a good idea to adopt

[Drumlin2001]

No. Have had two of my own, that's enough for me. Had previous considered adoption as a possible option at some point, but always envisioned having at least 1 of my own.

I respect your choice... but I wanna know what is it with having own... like there are so many children who needs a home...

We should reduce the population.
That's why adaption

I’d rather have my own but I would consider adoption it’s just so dam expensive compared to having your own and it takes a long time. Why pay 36,000 or 20,000 if you can have healthy children of your own? I would love to help a less privileged child I just don’t have that kind of extra money around, we need it for a house. If I had some kind of genetic issue thou I would not risk it.

Have my own. I'd adopt if I couldn't have my own, but going to a hospital is literally about 10x cheaper than adoption.

[Asker]

So that's your reason... but don't you think adopting can makes a child's life so much better

[LazerBean]

Maybe, but I'm not going to be emotionally manipulated into charity. There are more people waiting to adopt than there are babies to be adopted, so it's not like an extra person waiting around is going to change anything.

Have my own, adoption is for people you can't have children or can't bother with the younger stages of the kids life, etc

[Asker]

It's not necessary that only those who can't have baby go for adoption... even those who can't are going for expensive methods to get their own baby... don't know why people don wanna adopt
