Yeah that's not an option due to a lot of factors, mainly that our coumtry doesn't allow couples to start the process as there's a lot of issues with adoption worldwide. It's basically a business for some people to find children that rich people from western counties pay good money for to adopt. For example in Congo it's basically impossible for Congolese couples to adopt a baby as there's more money to be made from western couples. It's also very different from having a child that's your own, so even if it was a possibility, we wouldn't want to go down that road.
