There are many children who are deprived of the love of their natural parents and a healthy environment for their growth and development. There are many couples who have love to give and no child of their own. Adoption is the bridge between the two. By adopting a child, you build a beautiful family while meeting the child's craving for permanent, nurturing home.
Although parenthood by pro- creation and parenthood by adoption are unique experiences, parenthood is the same, regardless of how it was achieved. It involves all the pleasures and pains of raising a child but in the end, the child is yours whom you will love and watch stepping out into the world on his or her own.
Technically, 'Adoption' has been defined as a legal action that transfers all parental rights to adoptive parents, making the adopted child a legal member of the new family with all the rights and privileges of a biological child.
But more than that, welcoming a child into your lives is an experience that is intensely emotional for all involved - the adopted child, and you, as the adoptive parents.
