Wonderful Quotes and Sayings About Adoption

Adoption brings with it a whole range of emotions, relationships, and ties. Let’s delve deeper into this noble act and shed light on the varied emotions that it brings along.

The U.S. State Department in its annual report of 2013, has reported that American families adopted more than 7,000 children in the year 2012. In 2011, Americans adopted the highest number of children from China.

Adoption is a selfless act. It signifies hope and the promise of a better future. It leads to the birth of new relationships and a family. While the act in itself is extremely noble, there are several questions that are asked and several probing doubts that are put forth by the world. To be able to get past these and make a world of your own with your child is something that all adoptive parents have to deal with and strive to achieve. Once these niggling doubts have been soothed, the only thing that is left is your family.
