In terms of children or babies, would you be willing to adopt? 

I have been thinking about this for awhile. I feel like at this point, it may be my best option. I can't see myself finding someone and settling down fast enough to have kids and not be risking anything.

I think I would. I would prefer to have my own but I am not against adoption. I myself was adopted so I don't really feel like I could reject the idea of it.

Yeah, I would. I have considered it before. I think having one or two of my own and adopting at least one kid is a good mix.

I am not sure. I would be worried that if I were adopted, I would not love the adopted child as much as my own. I guess if I did not have my own, it wouldn't matter as much, and in that case... I would. So It depends. If I don't find my special someone soon, adopting will be the way I start a family.

It is not something I have thought about. I am getting older now and still do not have kids, I may get to a point where I am too old for them. In that case, adoption might be my only option. I don't think I will ever be able to afford to have a woman carry a child for me.

It depends, well I guess one of the main reasons is if my partner/wife would not be able to concieve but we still wanted to have a family anyway. I guess under those circumstances,

It is not something I have thought about. If my own kids were not an option and I still wanted a family, I am sure I would look into my options. Adoption is just so expensive.

Sure! I would prefer to have my own but if it was not an option, I would adopt. I would prefer to adopt a baby though, a child that is 16 months or younger. I would not want to adopt a child that is already doing everything on their own.
