I want to give my child up for adoption. Is it difficult?
We have a 1 and a half year old girl. She was a mistake to be honest. She wasnt planned. I didnt use contraception and wife didnt use birth control

We both have absolutely no love for her whatsoever. I cant explain it but, she means the same to us as anyother kid you see on the streets. We are both career minded and she is just getting in the way. So we thought we should just give her away to someone who cares and would enjoy taking care of her.

We will be seeing a solicitor next week, but wondering if there are any people who have given up for adoption and is procedure difficult.
Additional Details
What can we do? We dont love her. Shesreally like a stranger to be honest. We have no affection towards her. We dont kiss her or hug anything like that. Thats just the way we are. Like it or hate it.

the bottom line is she gets in our way and we want her out of our lives and into the lives of someone who cares and wants to raise a child. because we certainly dont

Personally, I don't underdstand where you are coming from. You probaly have a good reason for not really wanting your child. Mabe based on your bringing up or what not. I have never had anything to do with adoption, but I am looking into it right now. So in my research, I see that adoption is usually in the best interest for the child. If you can't love her like she needs, you should give her to someone who can. I thank you for taking the childs interest in mind. It would be selfish to keep her not loving her. There are lots of people out there like me that can no longer have children or never could, praying a chilkd will fall in thier arms. Good luck to you and the baby.

First, I just want to say that my heart aches for your daughter. My husband and I want to adopt a baby girl. If there is anything we could do to help, please let me know. Even if it is just advise from a loving mother. I have two very young boys, but dream of having a daughter to complete our family. I am so sorry that you and your wife aren't as thrilled as we were about our children. I respect your honesty. I just can't help but ask more about Rebecca.....

It's not too late for your child to have a loving home. I agree with the aforementioned suggestion to call Catholic Charities. Explain to them that you need your daughter to go to a loving home and that you are both willing to reliquish all parental rights. Because of your daughter's age, you should be able to find a family quickly. If you have trouble finding a family, write to me. My husband and I will take her, and Catholic Social Services will help us work out the adoption with you (I know the director and the bishop personally). My husband was adopted himself. We have three kids, ages 7.5, 4.5 and 3 who are begging for a new sibling, we own our own home and one of us stays home with the kids.

I do think you should first find a couple who has no kids but really wants to be parents, because they would be so blessed by this little girl, but if you literally can't, we will certainly love your child and raise her well.

Tie a big red bow around her neck and take her to Wal-Mart parking lot in a big cardboard box. Have her shot records, and baby pictures handy.
You'll get rid of her in 30 seconds FLAT.
Is she house-broken? Leash-trained? Quiet?
Piece a cake.

I hope you are joking, but if you are not, I can't imagine any career that compares to seeing your own flesh-and -blood put her sticky arms around your neck, and say "I wub you, Daddy."
She deserves parents who love her, and you deserve to have successful careers (and not much else.)

i wont be rude but i must say as i was reading that i started to feel sick imagining YOUR child never having a kiss or a cuddle never having a mum or dad to play silly games with and make her smile. i think adoption is the very best option for all of you. you get your life back and she gets the love she needs and deserves. remember she didnt ask to be here its you carelesness that she is here and without love. a new family will love her like you couldnt. wish you and rebecca all the best and happines.

I am not sure how to answer your question. I don't understand how you can have no feelings for you own child.
You really don't know how truly lucky you and your wife are. My sister has been trying to get pregnant for the last 13 years. Her first pregnancy was a tubal and she was forced to terminate it. The second pregancy she delivered a son but he was already dead. You can't imagine how much pain you feel when you loose your own child.
To just give your child away. Unimaginable.

Wow, I'm floored by your insensitivity to your daughter. Is this for real???? If you are serious, then contact an adoption agency or attorney ASAP. That little girl need love and attention, it's not fair she has to live in such an unloving, unnurturing home. I had to give my son up for adoption at birth, it's something that broke my heart and I've never gotten over it (still, even though we've been in reunion just over a year)...I loved him VERY much. You get NO money by adoption out a child, none at all. I suggest you look into this tomorrow!

Contact a lawyer and start looking at prospective couples who would want a somewhat older child. Do it now before you f u c k this poor thing up. You should have done this when you found out you two selfish a s s holes were pregnant with this poor little baby.

Not hugging or kissing her, hell, not showing this little girl any affection at all is a form of abuse. Cut your twig and berries off and get that dog wife of yours spaded. Keep this from happening again.

I cant understand for one minute how you are feeling. I am a mother myself and the thought of being without my daughter would destroy me. You have obviously given this a lot of thought , its really strange you feel nothing for your daughter. Was it a bad birth or did things go wrong in the months up to her arrival. I am so sorry you feel this way. You probably all ready been through the counselling stage and know that this is what is best for you all. It works for millions of familys each year. Please dont be down on yourself, you must love your daughter to some degree to be wanting her to be cared for. Goodluck to te 3 of you, hope you dont live with regrets for the rest of your lives. My heart goes out to your daughter x x

I wasn't planned either but my parents took the time out for me. I'm now 14 and a straight "A" student. So, you should do the same...take the time out for your daughter. By the way, you must've thought about keeping your daughter because you've waited a year and a half just to start up an adoption process. Admit it....you're going to miss your daughter a lot when you "get rid of her". Also, you'll never have another daughter like your first.

Nice. My husband and I have been trying for 3 years now and have both gone through surgeries and still nothing. We are on our second round of clomid and yet you and your selfish wife have no love for your own child??? OMG WE WILL TAKE HER!!! It should be hard to give up your child but in your case I dont think you will bat an eye. You need to be sterilized!!! and never aloud to have a child!!!

I have mixed feelings about your question.

I'm glad to see you looking for a new home for her, and realizing that you are incapable of being a parent. Contact an adoption agency that is licensed in your state. Regardless of whether or not you feel you love this child, you owe it to her to be responsible about her care.
