If you have a loving family around you, you’re in the best position possible. In many ways, it’s what life’s all about. Together, you can face the world and its challenges. But, as heartbreaking as it may be, not everyone can achieve that goal. Couples who want children may be unable to have them. Kids in foster homes miss out, too. Any parent’s heart breaks at the thought of children without a safe home to return to. So, it makes sense that you’d want to do your bit. And, with a little luck you’ll be in a position to help.
Of course, helping those without a family of their own isn’t as easy as, say, giving money to charity. Sharing the love of your family is an emotional issue, and it comes with many challenges. But, that doesn’t mean it’s not worth doing. There are a few different ways to spread the family love. You could foster or adopt children. You could even become a Surrogate if it interests you. Any of these steps stand to make a huge difference to somebody else’s lives. In the kindness stakes, it doesn’t get much better.
The main thing to bear in mind is that this decision affects everyone. It’s not something you can undertake alone, and doing so could cause ripples in the family you’re attempting to share. If you’re passionate about this, it can be hard to accept that it may not be best for your family. But it’s crucial you take the time to consider how this would affect your home dynamics. Whatever help you decide to offer is going to have some impact on your family as a whole. It’s important you reach the decision together.

The most important part of any happy home is the foundation. In most cases, that foundation is the bond between you and your partner. There’s no denying that there are many happy single parent families in the world. For the most part, though, it’s best to have two parents on side. Your partner should be the first person you discuss this with. It can be hard knowing how to broach the subject, but it’s crucial you do. Avoiding arguments is essential, so stay calm, and talk through your reasoning. It may help to start with how happy you are. Then, tell your partner your reasoning for wanting to share.
If your man is on board, speak to the children. We often tell our kids what’s happening in the home, instead of asking them. Don’t do that here. Understand that decisions such as these could change your children’s lives. Again, talk them through your thinking. If you’re going down the adoption route, try to get them excited about a brother or sister. And, accept that it may take time for them to come around to the idea. Rushing something as big as this could end in disaster. Be patient, and accept that, if not everyone wants it, it may not be the best thing.
