Katherine Heigl was recently interviewed by The Insider and shared her interest in being a future adoptive parent. She has a sister that was adopted from Korea and feels that being an adoptive parent is a way for her to honor her sister and her mother. "If you can give one child that [a home and family], I don't know why you wouldn't." She also stated that she is "super grateful" for Angelina Jolie and other adoptive parents who have brought about adoption awareness. Heard that she and Brad are looking into adopting another child soon. No word on when or from what country.
Ms. Heigl is very right, there is a huge need for more adoptive homes and with November and National Adoption Month coming up - it's time to start thinking about those 129,000 children in foster homes right now awaiting a foster care adoption.

Unfortunately, most adoptive parents adopt newborns, who could grow up with their own family if the mother was given enough assistance. Why do people think adoptive parents are better for a child than natural parents? Katherine Heigl will no doubt adopt a newborn, certainly not one of those “already screwed up” foster kids who really, really need a home.
yes, good dessison.
Great Katherine Heigl
