Why Don't You Just Adopt? Why even consider Surrogacy, Egg Donation, or IVF?

Posted on May 6, 2009 by Theresa Erickson

I have been reading alot of blogging regarding this question of "why not just adopt?", inlcuding several articles in well-known magazines questioning why anyone would choose surrogacy, egg donation or IVF over adoption.  But, we all know that it is not that simple.  And, what I really want people to do is think before you ask such questions.  Take your own life experience and personalisms out of the equation - instead, spend a moment to "walk in their shoes."  Literally. 

I suggest that you read "So You're Infertile, Why Not Just Adopt?" by Dawn Davenport.  I also suggest STRONGLY that you also read all of the comments listed by her participants.  Very enlightening, and it may help you when you are speaking to others about your journey.
