Hi
I can,t have any more children due to an early menopause and I am having trouble coming to terms with it.
I have thought about adoption but I am worried about shattering my ds's existence.
He is 8 and of course in that time he will have got used to being on his own and of having me and his dad to himself.
I am open to having a baby to a child up to the age of 7.
However what if the child has behavioural problems emotional issues and it disrupts my ds's world.
I am not saying that I don,t want to deal with any issues that a child may have I think it could be a rewarding challenge but I would be worried for my ds how he would cope etc.
Just wondering if anyone has done this despite having one biological child and how did their child take to it.
