    I must say careful planning is in order. Im 30 one house paid for and buying a second house own a BMW and have another child on the way. Im not rich or loaded but i manage my money well. Wife has a good job at the hospital and i own a snow removal business and farm about 4k acres. Not trying to turn this into an argument or a pissing match but blaming a child for lack of pin collection is just harsh man.

    Quoted from system11:

    BAM! Mistake.

    We make lifestyle choices based on expendable resources, you made your choice.

    That was directed at someone else. Now understanding the question you asked in more detail as in adopting,people should not be so quick respond with something so harsh.

    That is a very stand up thing to do. To take someones child they had to make the ultimate decision to give them a better life is just WOW, thats all that can be said about that. Good luck and hope everything works out for you through the whole process. Congratulations!

    Previous post was not saying steve was putting the blame of a child on his pins i was saying what you said real harsh without pointing fingers directly at you. Especially now knowing he is adopting and what you said about the child being a "mistake" is just harsh dude. We all have to live in our means and i really dont like to brag or run on about what i have,done,seen but it kinda upsets me when someone criticizes me about my car or house. Ive worked hard for what i have as im sure everyone else has for what they have.
