Many people considering adoption ask themselves that question. It's a common fear among potential adoptive families. Though all potential adoptive parents want to believe that they'd be completely unbiased, and would love an adopted child as much as they would a biological child, there is still uncertainty.

"Talk to other adoptive families... Many adoptive parents are more than happy to talk about their experiences, their fears in the beginning and how things turned out for them. Hearing another adoptive parent admit to having similar concerns early on in their adoption process, and then seeing them united with their new child and completely in love with him or her, is very reassuring."

Another way to connect with other adoptive families is to join a local support group or online forum. Hearing positive stories from other families will help ease your fears as you move forward in the adoption process. Read more at Adoptionblogs.com.
