This is the wrong illusion sometimes that even the media puts out there. I have meet many kids (and adults) who were either in foster care or adopted and they are wonderful, happy, successful people. You have to keep in mind that sometimes the child may have gone through a great ordeal,(some kids grew up in an abuse household,etc) and it takes time to adjust to a new experience. Children have a fear of abadment especially those who haven't had a secure and safe home. All children need love regardless if they have a physical disablity or not. If you are trully interested in adopting, maybe you should contact people who have adopted and find out through there experience, or maybe working with kids and seeing if becoming a parent is something that u want to do. This is a big decision. Mind you that if you have your kids without adoption there is no guarantee that they won't have a physical, mental, or emotional "disability". Take care! All the best! Vicki
