People are already asking me “How much our children cost to adopt?”
I guess there is such thing as a st@pid question!!!
here are some more:…

1. Is that your child? No its my husbands other wife’s
2. Where did you get him/her? At Costco
3. Why? this one I get all the time because we want to, why not??
4. How much did it cost? Pleeease!!!
5. How long did you have to wait? This is ok..
6. Do you know anything about the “real” parents? Only for prospective adoptive families
7. Are you going to tell your child he/she is adopted? NOOOOOO, Ha just kidding!!!

“• Don’t ask personal questions.

• Don’t talk about the child in public.

• Don’t use the term “real.” Instead, talk about “birth parents” and “birth siblings.” Adopted children are, in fact, living with their real parents, who are bringing them up. They are also living with their real brothers and sisters, who are growing up in the same family.

• Don’t refer to the birth parents as the “natural” parents. The implication is that the adoptive parents are unnatural.

• Don’t tell people that they are selfless for taking someone else’s child or suggest that the child is lucky. “First, these are our own children,” says Kathryn Creedy of Celebrate Adoption Inc. “Second, adoption is really a very selfish thing. People adopt for just one reason: They are looking for what is inherent in most of us, children of their own. They can’t or choose not to do it in the traditional method so they adopt.”

• Don’t tell horror stories unless you can prove it only happens in adoptive families. “The human condition is complex and to ascribe a problem as being solely attributed to adoption is incorrect,” Creedy says.”
