Adoption for the disabled

This topic is a bit touchy for me, I am a strong believer that every child needs a home, someone to love them, , and some place to grow mentally and physically. Most women dream of having little girl of little boy, but they dont see them having mental problems such as being disabled. They dream of the perfect child, bringing them home and saving their lives. But what about the kids who dont get taken home because of a little imperfection. I would like to see that change here in America, yes I understand that some adults dont think that they could supply a environment sutible for them. In saying all these thoughts I would just like to see the disabled children given a chance to have a great love in their life, and share a connection with a parent just like all the others.

  1. As a mother of a disabled child this topic hits home with me. I feel so lucky that God chose me to be Brady's mother because I love him so much and feel like no one can love him or take care of him like I do or or his brother does. I have seen disabled children neglected and I have seen disabled children up for adoption and I always wish I could do something about it, however there isn't enough room nor enough arms to take on the load of children that I would if I could. Thus the reason I chose the medical field (leaning more and more towards neonatal) so that I may someway help them the best way I can even if it is just taking care of them or rocking the babies to sleep. They are true angels and blessings in our lives and if you ever get to love a disabled child you see the true beauty within them and understand what an example of unconditional love they really are.

  2. This is a subject that everyone should agree on. Children are very beautiful people, they can bring a smile to anyone's face. There is a place in their hearts that everyone they meet goes straight to. It should be the same for others even after they grow up. The children with disabilities can't help their minor imperfections,god made them this way to show us the true meaning of human life. To cherish life as you have it, blemishes, flaws and all.
    As a child my sister made fun of these children that we went to school with because of their disability. When she found out that she was going to be a mother for the first time, she found out that there are complications with her pregnancy, but she carried on. Within a few weeks after delivery she found out that her new daughter had Cerebreal Palsy. She was so upset, that she did everything she can do to help this little girl, even though the doctors told her that if she lived to the age of 11 or 12 she would be doing good. My niece is now 15 and still as beautiful as the day she came out. My sister tells people all the time how she was mean as a child and that it changed her life in the long run. God changed my sister because of her daughter, because she does have a disability. But to my sister and family she is perfect in every way. As all children are. So in response to this, yes, all children deserve a home where they are loved and thought of as a gift from god rather than a "mistake". There is no one in this world to give you a life limit. God made all of us the exact way he wanted us to be, and we should thank him every day for that.
