Are you saying that you adopted a child, and then your marriage broke down?

I have knowm a couple that has happened to. Although I think the responsibility of having another child was the main problem, not that it was an adopted child.

Adopted as a child and then divorced as an adult? Feelings of rejection?

I was an adopted baby & got divorced two years ago - it that the experience you are looking for mufti? Or do you mean a couple adopted a baby/child & then the marriage ends?

mufti, so sorry to hear that. No experience of that exactly, but there is no doubt children put a huge strain on couples - regardless of how much wanted they are.
