Say Yes

PLEASE know that adoption does NOT have to be an huge expense. I know most people think this (due to hearing of the cost of overseas adoptions). PLEASE, PLEASE know that adopting from foster care is FREE. Yes, FREE! Yes, it may take some time & effort in getting licensed through 'the system'...but these children need YOU! We have 6 children, four who were adopted from foster care (we were their foster parents). Sibling groups are in HUGE need!! Let God direct your paths...open your hearts!!

Irritates me that I can't adopt because I have a mental disability. Plenty of people that have mental disabilities, most worse than mine, end up raising kids the right way. Some people that don't have any disabilities screw up raising their kids, like what happened to me!

It's truly a shame how many people out there shy away from adopting older children. There seems to be this assumption that there's something wrong with them, otherwise they would have already been adopted. But that couldn't be further from the truth. Imagine if we'd all open our hearts and homes to just one of these children.  It would be amazing.

@tnadams81

The same is true of older dogs as well.

My husband and I would love to adopt and could support a child in our lives, but with the adoption costs there would be no way we'd ever be able to do this. We have so much room in our hearts.

@LShiny Adopting from foster care in the US is FREE!! There are so many children who are "legally free" and just need a home. It is hard work but so worth it. We have adopted 2 and working on our third right now. It has only cost us the sacrifice of our hearts and you can do that!

I had looked into adopting several years ago. We wanted child around 3-8 because I already had a son & wanted him to have a brother or sister around the same age. The cost involved was so astronomical, so entirely unattainable for us, we abandoned that idea.

Hey, here's an idea America, lets not make it 10,000 dollars to adopt, (at the LEAST) and maybe more of these kids will get families instead of people going overseas to adopt.

@taintedinnocence85 try paying for a whole foster home, clothes food bills for over a hundred kids possibly

[wadehallen]

I can't wait to get my career going so I can put back some money because I want to be an adoptive father.

I know how these kids feel bc i was in their position at one point. I have recently found a family who loves me to no end and i can't help but love them too. Its like there was a hole in my heart and now that they're here its just gone :)

[docbonny]

Beautiful...

[brettsarahavari]

Watch this and see if you or someone you know can make room in their hearts for another child. You'd be surprised to find out that you may need them as much or even more they they need you.

Hi, I was never adopted so right now this video is making me cry. I feel there pain of wanting to belong to a family. I wish there are families out there in the world willing to adopt one of these precious children. God bless them all and hopefully after individuals watch this video they will have a change of heart in wanting to be part of their lives.

[sammizu0]

Okay. Its official. Im adopting.

[embo1011]

What a powerful testimony to the power of love and sacrifice! I am an adoptee and the recipient of unconditional love and care from my parents.
