I've a friend who is 29 & DESPERATE to have kids & start her family within the next couple years (before she reaches her early/mid 30s)
But cuz she's never been in any romantic relationship, had a boyfriend, or even been on a single date, she doesn't see herself becoming involved with a guy or getting married - at least not within the next few years, if EVER.
To further complicate things, from childhood she's had the mental illnesses ADHD, depression, Borderline Personality & Bipolar Disorder. But she's been under a doctor's care, is on medication, and has been stable & symptom-free for almost a decade.
Yet she is DESPERATE to become a mom while she is still young & though she's also considering artificial insemination, she also wants to adopt older kid(s) in need of good homes - hopefully from India (cuz that's where her parents & family is from)
She is very loving, affectionate & I think would make a great mom. Will she be able to adopt? Or is insemination the only option?
