Argentine journalist Ronen Suarc begins adoption process as single father

Argentine journalist Ronen Suarc is embarking on a significant new chapter in his life, having initiated the process to adopt a child as a single father in New York. He shared the heartwarming news with his over 400,000 Instagram followers, revealing he has received a favorable preliminary approval.

Do you remember I told you I wanted to be a dad? Well, I finally started the processes. I've been pre-approved so far. I can't believe it.

Suarc explained that his status as a single parent means he cannot adopt an infant but is eligible to welcome a child aged between six and eleven into his home. The specific child will be determined by adoption needs in the United States, leaving him uncertain whether he will become the father of a boy or a girl. "I think of a boy, a girl... The truth is, perhaps in my condition, a boy is easier, but I also dream of a girl with her little braids, taking her to school," he shared with enthusiasm.

The next phase involves a gradual getting-to-know-you period, starting with initial meetings to foster a bond, followed by supervised cohabitation. Suarc acknowledged his nervousness about this entirely new experience, admitting to his followers, "I don't know if there's a manual or anything you can recommend as advice. The truth is, I feel very nervous, very scared." Despite his anxieties, he is determined to share his journey as an adoptive parent.

Now comes the process, where you meet the child, start going out for a while, see if they feel comfortable and then, under supervision, they come to live with you. How nerve-wracking.

He emphasized his commitment to respecting the child's identity, stating, "Of course, we are not going to change his name. He has his story, his identity. And all I am going to do is try to give him a safe place, make him feel comfortable, and learn to be a dad." The journalist's announcement has garnered widespread support and congratulations on social media, with many wishing him well on this profound life change.
