    Adopt again?
    I have a six month old son who is adopted. I brought him home with me when he was 9 days old... I am single but I want to adopt again. I am financally stable, have a wonderful job that allows me to be with my son, and I have the room in my home. My friends and family say I'm crazy though... is it too soon for me to look at adopting again? It will be a long process before I'd be able to actually have another child, so I see no reason why I shouldn't start now, my son will probably be a year old by the time I can bring home a sibling... any input?

    I think it is a wonderful idea. As long as you think you can handle financially and mentally, I say go for it! It is so wonderful that there are people willing to take in orphaned or unwanted children. I am going to adopt in about 5 years (hopefully) when my boys get a little older. Good luck and I wish you the best! :)

    If you feel that your able to love and care for another child go for it. I have twins and most days I have them by myself for most of the time. People ask me all the time how I do it and then tell me I'm crazy. But you know, they don't know how good I've got it. If you can do it then go for it.

    I say go for it. The adoption process is long and almost never ending at times. If you start the process now you might be able to have children close to the same age. Many people want children close together so they get pregnant before their child reaches 1. I see it as the same thing with adopting. You have to plan and go through a lot of red tape, so why not start early?
