We are seriously considering adoption but are worried that our family set up will not get approved. Can I run it by you all to get your views? I couldn't bear it if we started the process then got turned down.
DP and I are very solid, 12 yrs together, home owners . We have one Dd who is 4. Dd has an undiagnosed life limiting genetic condition, hence the move to adopt, the risk to any other children having the same condition is too high. Dd requires 24 hour care, we get support at night and she will shortly go to school.
I'm concerned that we May be turned down due too DD being too demanding on our time. We'd love a bigger family. DP works and I am a stay at home mum. We are both well and are good people( we think)!
What do you think? It would be a massive massive thing for us to go forward to adopt, I couldn't handle being turned down, I'd rather know now.
