Redditor Tells Her Sister That She Would Be A Terrible Mother If She Goes Through With Her Plans Of Adopting And Dumping A Child

by Maryjane

Although adoptive parents frequently choose adoption as a practical way to start a family, the results of adoption are frequently more profound and satisfying than they could have ever dreamed. There are numerous benefits of adoption for families.

Through adoption, hopeful parents can raise a child they otherwise wouldn't be able to. Adoption offers infertile couples a surefire way to grow their family without the emotional or financial risk associated with IVF procedures.

Couples and single people can adopt children in order to spend their lives with them and experience the unique joys of parenting. All these and many more are what one stands to benefit from when one decides to adopt.

But you can just decide to adopt when you know you have plans to let that child go after some time. This is what the OP's sister wanted to do, and she brought the story to the AITA subreddit community to help judge her actions.

The OP and her sister are pretty close. So one day, the OP's sister said she wanted to adopt a newborn.

The OP was confused because she is single and has never wanted kids. When asked why she wanted to adopt newborn babies and raise them until they were 8 or 9 years old, then give them up, saying she could no longer take care of them for whatever reason, she had no valid explanation.

Read the story for yourself below.

The Story's Headline

She can no longer take care of them for whatever reason

She called the OP and told me to stop airing out her dirty laundry

Let's keep going further to read all what redditors had to chirp into this issue

That way of parenting is not being a good parent

You don't adopt a baby and give it up

What kind of mental gymnastics led you to that conclusion?

Stand your ground and do not apologize

It says something about your own bizarre morals

She's planning on doing so via non legal avenues

She should not be allowed to adopt

Please don't let that happen to that child

Your sister is not a nice person

You shouldn't assist her with the adoption process

You told your sister the truth

She's already shown you what she does with rehoming animals

Her goal is to cause mental damage

Your sister needs help on her emotional detachment

You need to tell the adoption agency her plan

This Redditor wants to make one thing clear

Why would anyone consider ruining a child's life like that?

You need to tell the adoption agency the same

That's just so wrong on so many levels

Although each adoptive parent has their own unique motivations, the main benefit of adoption is that it creates families. The OP's sister clearly didn't know what she wanted, and Redditors made that clear in the comments.
