I would like to once I'm through college and settled into a job. I don't think I'll ever get married, but my career choice has a lot of remote jobs. I want two children, probably both boys, so they don't feel lonely. My sister only has one son, and he keeps asking for a brother. A friend of mine has two girls and a boy, and they play together a lot. I've babysat them often, and I don't think I could raise three children alone.

My parents did foster care in 2000 and we took care of a three sibling group. Always thought of adopting them as they were like 3, 4 and 2 years old. Never did as they went to live in another group home after about 2 years of taking care of them. I was good with them as they liked me though as for adopting a child now probably wouldn't care of how expensive it is. My mom's adopting two boys who are in their 30's and they been with us since they were both 16 years like 2004.
Always wanted too.
Grew up with adopted siblings but so far I've only fostered with my late fiance. Now that he's not here, I don't feel like I've the resources to take care of a child full time but I do get 3 siblings - once a month over a weekend and sometimes more, depending on how it's going at home.
I honestly consider it. I won't make any but adopting them is a different story. But I ain't adopting a loud child, I don't need that shi in my house.

Absolutely! I wanted to adopt, but my husband wasn't on board. I'm still hopeful that we can at least foster kids who need us.
Only if we were unable to conceive/infertile. I would rather have my own kids at the end of the day.
ADOPTEE HERE!!
yeah, depending on how it's done

Fuck no. If I wanted to deal with somebody else’s mistakes I would be a psychologist.

Yes, my wife and I have discussed it before.
Definitely, I'm already considering it but I don't have the house to raise kids in yet
nope, I just finished getting the last one through college. I do not want to start all over again.
Yes, kinda running out of time though, really need to apply myself to it.
I have considered it especially if I never get around to having kids of my own. I am 31 now so that doesn't give me much time left to start a family when I'm single af and still looking for Mr. Right.
Nope, especially since I can still father kids
Nope. But I also don't want biological children either. I don't think I'd make a good parent and I have no desire to learn to become one.
Definitely, I know some people who were adopted and they're really close to their parents.
Yeah many kids need homes, and I can't give birth
Some of my friends have kids and if something happened to the friends, then I would consider it.
I suppose. There are a lot of children that need loving homes. If I couldn't have any and could provide, why not.
Im adopted. I will not adopt or get kids of my own.
So many serial killers were adopted. And ruined their adoptive parents’ surname.
Bundy
Berkowitz
RifkinI would consider it, but I would like to have my own children biologically too. The more the merrier.
No. I was adopted as a child, and adoption causes a rather severe attachment disorder in most adopted children.
If i ever have kids i believe i will go this route
