We encourage you to reach down deep…help a child…give them a home…make them feel wanted and needed and loved…but most of all make sure you always tell the child the truth. When all else fails…the truth will bring you through.
May we take this moment to say…never forget this child came from others. Don't bring heartache upon yourself and the child by making a loved child give up the love of a parent…unless that child is in some kind of danger…then and only then may he/she need protecting…but for the sake of all things right…be honest and tell them the truth…and make sure the truth you tell them…is not going to make them wonder why they were adopted in the first place.
Protect yourself and the child…never adopt a child that has a loving and caring parent(s)…but has lost the child over things beyond their control.
What we mean by saying…make sure there is a legitimate reason for adopting the child…never take a child just because you can.
