Adopting a child isn’t something that a lot of couples choose to do. This goal definitely may not be accomplished because it has to wait until I’m married, and it depends on what my husband wants as well.
The reason why I would want to adopt a child as well as have one of my own is, selfishly, because it’s one less time that I would have to go through labour.
In addition, though, there are too many people on this planet as it is, so I may as well do my part and give a pre-existing child a home. The child might have a better life because of that, as I know that my younger adopted cousin has had.
I would want to adopt it as a baby, though, so that I can raise it myself as much as possible :)
