cuddly view on adoption....

Pune for some time now has been credited with titles such as 'oxford of the east', or ' pensioners paradise'.....but off late it has come to be called as the 'adoption capital of India'...for obvious reasons..adoption in India has long been looked down upon..social stigma's,bias attitude,and averse thinking are few of the many reasons why couples shy from even venturing anywhere close to the idea of adoption.
The rise in adoption in pune is mainly cause the legal procedures aren't very tedious.Adoption trends in the city are changing rapidly too.More young people have been coming to the fore for this humane cause.Society's outlook on adoption has hence changed immensely.
there has been a surging rise in the number of NGO's and adoption agencies in the city which contribute to the rise in adoption.not being able to have children of your own shouldn't discourage aspiring parents,since having an adopted child isn't very different from having a biological one cause one still has to stay awake late into the night and change nappies....:)
The trend is fast catching on with single parents...working mum's and dad's ie.
I think this is a good step forward for the Indian society as a whole,cause these orphans need the very same love and care that any other child would require.There still is a segment of the crowd who are withholding but wont be able to do so for long.

The various changing trends in adoption as i have sited in a news article are as follows:
  • youngsters stepping forward to adopt
  • rising demand for girl child
  • couples not seeking child's biological history
  • grandparents and family aren't averse anymore
  • being unable to conceive isn't a social stigma anymore
these factors have helped this worthy cause...
i hence conclude by saying Adoption in many ways is even better than having your own

Hey dude,
I finally got to read your blog.... I was so bored :P.
Anyway here are some of the mistakes i have found....
I know you intended it as an informal script, and hence the lack of capitals, the use of '....', nonetheless , at the very least do keep the capitals on Oxford and East if not the "the's" and the "not's".
Also you have use cause in place of because (creating quite an ambiguous effect). Futhermore it should be "social stigmas" and not "social stigma's" and "biased attitudes" not "bias attitude" (note the lack of plurals).
I also found the use of "surging rise" in your writeup which if I may point out is a tautology. Just surge or rise would have sufficed.
Well thus far i have pointed out the grammatical mistakes in your writeup.... Now for the critique on the actual contents.... Hehe, just kidding. The write up though a bit amateurish had atleast good content. Your sentences are a little rough though, with sudden changes in thoughts half way through :P.
In conclusion I would just like to say that your conclusion would have been better if you had built up a good argument bringing out why you concluded thus. A one line argument for your conclusion is I fear a bit lacking.
Ok this is the post script part... i didnt do this to sound haughty or anything(ok maybe a little). Actually the real reason was to make you realize the necessity of thinking out each sentence both grammatically as well as keeping in mind the over all progress of your write up.
