First, bringing up the topic in public seems like you’re preparing to bring up the topic with your daughter, now or soon.
Certainly not wise, possibly cruel.
Resolving now to not lie when SHE brings it up is a relevant, possibly brave thing to do.
Noting the difficult decision, either to tell a painful truth or to lie, is an excellent blog post.
I do hope your daughter feels your love more than fear of “adoption costs”, and I echo that the big cost of any kid is the daily, weekly, monthly, yearly raising costs.
If you, as a parent, really feel the adoption fee differences aren’t very important, than your daughter probably won’t either. The fear in the negative comments seems to be that, perhaps you DO think the fee differences are important, so your daughter will, too.
That would be sad.
