agree. Geez- that feels good!

I went through a grueling adoption process as a result of some difficult life issues- and am happy to say that we made it- My biggest struggle was a pretty closed minded, ....."conservative" Judge- who held our family's future in his black robed hands.
Thanks to many wonderful people at several agencies, and Pro Bono representation by outstanding people from the Franklin Pierce Law School- after almost 5 years of struggle, we became 'legal'. My son had been with us from the time he was 6days old.-

People who go through the adoption process, (average peeps) do so with a lot of effort, forethought and love for the child they are hoping to become family to- And the home-study should look for obvious issues and seek to help minimize them. Whether the parents are the same sex or opposite sex, and even if there is only one parent- shouldn't even enter into the decision- as long as they can demonstrate that they are committed to parenthood, and prepared (as best one can be) and love each other.
IM long-winded Opinion.

(sorry- personal peeve)


Thanks for listening.

peace~
