In the course of the research I’ve been doing for the book I’m working on, I’ve come across some groups that may be of interest to certain older adoptive parents.
Thanks to the age we live in and the wonders of the technology that does such a wonderful job of connecting, far-flung like-thinkers, fellow-suffers, idea-sharers and the like can meet up and carry on conversations as often as they like and from the comfort of their own desks.
Yahoo groups have formed for thousands of reasons … maybe millions by now … and I belong to many. Listed below are some you might want to check out.
Since most require membership, I have not looked more closely than their self-description (quoted after the url), so can’t vouch for actual content.
http://health.groups.yahoo.com/group/babiesafter50/
A place for women who decide that they wish to have children after the age of 50 via natural conception, surrogacy, donor egg or adoption or perhaps it was not your decision at all but a higher power made the choice for you. What ever your circumstances may this group bring you support and good wishes.

Welcome and thank you for joining MilkShare, an online resource to connect mothers with excess milk to families that choose to provide breastmilk for thier little ones, but are uncapable of making enough on their own.

This e-group is for those emotionally struggling with their own infertility after completing an adoption or in process of adopting. If you are seeking support from others experiencing the pain of infertility, please join our group.

This Group is for women who are dealing with Primary Infertility (meaning they have been unable to conceive a child (or substain a pregnancy) after 12 months of regular sexual intercourse without birth control). This Group is for women who have been TTC for at least 2 years, and in any stage of infertility (during treatments, on hold, considering adoption or deciding to be childless).
