Do you think it's a good idea?

@froggtongue because no one proposed?

@sugarpie That's really all? Hm. It might due to say that upfront upon meeting a new potential mate so as there is no wasted time as to the end goal of dating — if you haven't been doing that already.

@sugarpie but getting back to the original statement about adopting, as @exchrist is saying, it helps so much to adopt. It helps to ease the stresses on foster organizations and the whole system that takes care of these kids. It helps the kid too. But on the other side, it takes a bit from you. Adoption kids tend to have more issues manifest because of the situations that ended up putting the kid in such an agency. So take care in choosing which kid you get. And despite even choosing the best option, be prepared for having a rough time of it. That aside, if you can do it, I think it really helps over all.
