Great! You have contributed your part to making the world a better place. Nigeria should encourage adoption. A lot of babies out there looking for somewhere to call home.

Now, do your part to make the world a safe place for the girl child.
When i,m 50,i will like to adopt 2 children,i already started a savings policy at AXA MANSARD for it.May God keep us to fulfil our dreams.

yeah right but I did it , though it wasn't easy
Sometimes though the orphanage pays us a visit to check up on her and they can testify that she is doing great.

Put her in the best school I can find in my state, the school that she attends is also being attented by children and relatives of politicians in my state of residence , trust me she is living the life of a princess cheesy

The orphanage are now the ones telling me to adopt more but I am like nah for now maybe later in the future

So no stress grin
it is not all rosy as you are trying hard to portray here. You story is very odd to say the least - a 25yr old adopting a female child promts lots of questions. Or is this some cock and bull crap?

Op I want to know. How did your parents swallow this? and your relatives as well?

At first, they weren't so cool with it, they were of the opinion that if I wanted a child, I should get a girl pregnant and all that.

But I told them nah, don't want no baby mama and all their baggages they come along with for now, infact my daughter has already spent few months with me before any of my family members got to know about it so it was too late for them to do anything about it.

And besides they know me say I stubborn and I no dey hear word so they just let me be and accepted her as part of the family grin , not that they really had a choice anyways

I related psychologically with your write up and replies to critics and I adore your ability to imbibe fundamental principles of simplicity of life. God bless you man.

I got worse criticism when I was in the process of adopting her so nothing that anyone will say is new to me, it's because of this I don't openly tell people she is adopted, apart from my family and the orphanage management and my lawyer ,no else knows she is adopted and I want it to stay that way.

Hello, good day cheesy,

https://www.nairaland.com/4538476/want-adopt-child

y'all remember the thread I created back in 2018 ,well I did succeed adopting a child, I adopted her from a orphanage and I will say my experience during the process of adopting her was really difficult than I Imagined, first I was a single young guy not even in my mid twenties yet and I had tattoos and lil tjay and lil baby kind of hair styles (those familiar with them will know the kind of hair style I am talking about grin) oh mhen the stereotyping was off the roof, what did they not say, is it been called a ritualist , mhen I was suffered by the abusive words that was unleashed on me by all those women but I didn't relent and finally after everything I succeeded,

At one point , I wanted to go with my mum at least to show that I had no ulterior motive but then again I thought to myself, you can do this on your own and I am glad I overcame.

I began the process in mid 2018 and it was not until it late 2018 that my application was granted, I then proceeded with the rest formalities and I took my daughter home, she was 3 when I adopted her .

The first thing I did when we got home was to change her wardrobe, I took her shopping and bought two big boxes filled with clothes and shoes, also bought some female toys and other stuffs.

She was shy at first around me but with time ,she got used to me and became more free with me.

Mehn I must say so far adopting her was one of the best decision I have ever made in my life , I even tattooed her name on my arm, made me more responble in a way cheesy

And also in addition, chicks dig babies, like babies are like ladies' magnet. I never believe those statements to be true till I got my baby, like mehn you need to see the attention I get because of her, I mean we get because of her.

Don't get me wrong, ladies trip and drool over me before she came into my life but the amount of attention I get before her more than doubled cheesy. Before y'all start thinking this is the major reason I am happy I adopted her , let it be known that this is the least reason why I am happy..

All-in all she is God's blessings to me and I bless the day that I made the decision in adopting her.

She is such an Angel and a darling

I love her so much

Fatherhood is sweet




Kudos but
why not a guy? I am not comfortable with you adopting a female. Make thunder strike you to death if you ever molest her

Why adopting a child when you are still young. Does it mean u don't have any plans of getting married and having ur own babies

I wouldn't say there is a disadvantage of teaching her to be a Christian but the basic thing is to teach her to know right from wrong, won't impose any religion on her , my parents never did that to me, she should live her life and enjoy it just like I am living mine

Please be very careful with those magnet ladies , forget their gimmicks and smiles, the moment you give them attention or a chance in your life, they will start maltreating your innocent girl. It's in their constitution.

I am proud of you.

Responsibility is another definition for maturity, continue to be the best dad she will ever wish and pray for. I pray for more strength and Godly wisdom, never forget to imbibe Godly character in her. Continue to soar.
I understand what u mean but the word "instill" is quite jealous of that "imbibe" you used wondering why you gave its position to its opposite.

If you are pained, you can go hit your head on the wall for all I care. Like you said it's my life and I will live it however I so please, and I don't see it as a cross not when there is money.

And I have noticed something, most people with negative opinions and mindset like you are usually the broke ones, talk about poverty and negativity grin

The only lesson I will learn is more blessings and the capacity to adopt more so you can cry more grin

And I am not forcing anyone to follow my path, everyone got their to live so don't fúcking tell me how to live mine
