Adopting children from Armenia

Re: Adopting children from Armenia

An online friend showed me the pics of her and...I don't know...either relatives or friends giving the kids at the orphanage toys. She also told me that she gave this one kid, like a million pieces of candy, and this one kid just kept eating it, because he was hungry... AND, if a child was offered a second toy, they would just simply say, "No thank you, I already have one."

As for the question, I have thought about it...but, then it's like, well, I need to get married...to an Armenian man first...not planning on doing that for a while... But, yeah, it's something I would possibly do if my husband was up for it.

Some people who don't have any means of living, keep having babies and giving them away. While some who can afford living, don't have their own child. In general.

And that i will never understand...both side need to use some NOT so common sence.

Re: Adopting children from Armenia

As for adopting, I heard they have made it harder to adopt kids from Armenia, but should be looking into it, as it is something I'd really like to do. In the meantime, for my birthday I have asked my parents not to buy anything and instead we are sponsoring a child in Armenia.

Bravo Crissy! I appreciate your spirit.

aww thanx guys, well last year Christmas, my friends sponsored 6 kids in Armenia as family Christmas gifts. I mean we have all the materialistic things we can get. So why not, at least we're doing something to help others in need. When I get my info next month I'll show you guys a photo of my child

Re: Adopting children from Armenia

I really would want to do something like that, but I can't see myself raising a kid that isn't mine. I don't mean that in a bad way at all. For me, adoption doesn't seem right. I don't know why. You never know, though.

My parents were going to adopt a kid after the earthquake in Armenia and almost did. Weird, because I was still a baby. And I'd have grown up with him/her, and it would feel like we were blood related.

Some organizations are ok, but yea agree with you, no way of knowing which ones actually take the money to those in need. I mean after the earthquake, there were so many things such as clothing, food etc sent for the victims, and people who were not even effected by the earthquake got what they wanted and left what little was left over to those that actually needed it.

Definitely sponsoring a child is the best way to help someone in need.
