Adopt a child and give them a new Life :)

Once upon a time there was an idea that struck my mind.I thought how it will be if i adopt a child?Isn't it nice and a good feeling when you are giving a life to a child's dream.

Initially I don't know how to proceed,i don't know much about the acts, no idea how to and where to start about it.No idea of my initial step.But now as when i started reading about Hindu Adoptions And Maintenance Act, 1956 aka HAMA,i felt that the procedure was and is a hurdle for the people to adopt one.

So many restrictions and so many rules to follow.So many documents to submit.Taking the child to court every year till five years.Yes at the end of it security of the child is important but with the current act i feel people coming forward will be very few crossing all these.

These are quite a few to know more about it you can go through the act.

But at the end of the day i request people to think about Adopting a child and giving them a new life they dream off.That's the best thing you can do in your life time :)

Yes, it does seem complex.Another way of doing would be to adopt a child through programs like the ones Asha Jyothy has and provide them financial help every month.The kids stay with their parent/parents and get to study and achieve their dreams
