Grandchildren
Hi Dorispulaski -
Thanks so much for your honest response! I truly can sympathize about hearing your child is gay and the desire to see your line carried on through grandchildren. I know my grandparents loved me, and my other brothers and sister have provided them with 11 grand/great/great-great grandchildren between them.
But, could it be possible that an adopted child could become your emotional if not biological grandchild? Think of all the abandoned children, troubled children, children left by their parents etc etc who need a home so urgently. This may shock some people, but I believe that gay/lesbian parents willing to lovingly adopt can help rectify the terrible situations that careless adults creat by taking in unwanted/disrupted children.
Does a child biologically linked to a person create an emotional and spiritual bond automatically? Obviously not, if one looks at the rate of abused and abandoned children. I am just asking here if instead of wishing for biological grandchildren, that perhaps considering the value of grandchildren via adoption could possibly be as emotionally satisfying.
