I Feel Awful, But I Wish We Hadn't Adopted - Weekend Wisdom

Send us a topic idea or question for Weekend Wisdom. Question: I was the one who wanted to adopt.  My husband agreed because I wanted it so bad, but now, I’m the one who wishes we hadn’t done it. We adopted a 5-year-old little girl, who is now 7.  The awful truth is that I don’t love this child. I don’t even like her very much. I wish I could turn back the clock.
