20 families had previously rejected an ‘unusual’ girl before a single man adopted her

The story of this cute family of two started when little Alba, who was just 13 days old back then, was rejected by 20 adoptive families.

The decision made by all these people not to embrace the special little girl turned lucky for the 41-year-old Italian Luca Trapanese.

When he filled in the adoption papers, Luca didn’t really believe the social services would allow him to become the legal father of Alba as in the country where he is from it is not common for single, homosexual man to be granted custody.

But, as all those families didn’t want to adopt a child with Down Syndrome, and Luca was more than happy to have such child in his life, he took Alba in and became her legal daddy.

The moment he welcomed sweet Alba into his life, he became the happiest person on Earth. Speaking of his daughter and his case, he said it was very special because it “destroys stereotypes about fatherhood, religion and family.”

The journey of these father and daughter started back in 2017 and they are stealing the hearts of many ever since.

Luka has a heart of gold. He has been part of many social service programs throughout the years and volunteered at various organizations who help people with special needs find their place in the society. Among the rest, he was part of the foundation “A Ruota Libera” which provided assistance for children with Down Syndrome.

This was one of the reasons why Luca wanted to adopt a child with Down Syndrom despite not having a partner.

Finalizing the adoption was a difficult process as adoption agencies prefer “traditional” families over the non-conventional ones.

“For me, a disabled child is not a second choice solution, but a conscious choice with respect to my vocation and my abilities,” Luca said.

Alba is a happy child with a vibrant personality. She loves being around people and enjoys playing and dancing.

We are so glad that the perception of people with Down Syndrome is changing and they are considered valuable part of the society.

As for Luca and Alba, we wish them all the best that life can bring!

Avoid Leaving Chargers Plugged In

If you’re anything like me, you probably have a collection of bad habits you aspire to change someday. They might not be particularly severe—after all, who doesn’t have something they wish they could improve about themselves?—but the fact is, these habits exist, and that’s completely normal.

For some individuals, addictions can hinder their efforts to eliminate undesirable behaviors from their lives. This could range from smoking and drinking to gambling or indulging in fast food. However, many habits stem from simple routines, meaning that there’s often nothing truly stopping you from making a change other than perhaps laziness or forgetfulness.

Take my personal experience as an example: I found it difficult to remember to unplug my phone charger from the wall when it wasn’t in use.

I can already hear you thinking: how hard can it be to unplug a charger once your phone is fully charged? The honest answer is, it’s not hard at all.

Still, I’ve lost track of how many times my partner has gently reminded me to disconnect the charger from the outlet. Until recently, I didn’t give it much thought (which, as you can guess, is part of the problem). After all, what harm is there in leaving the charger plugged in, just waiting for its next use? None, right?

As it turns out, that may not be entirely accurate. I came to realize this when I stumbled upon a social media post discussing the potential issues associated with leaving chargers plugged in when they aren’t actively charging a device.

Needless to say, I quickly changed my habits. Not only has my partner been pleased, but I also let go of my “habit” out of concern for the potential consequences of leaving it plugged in.

So, what are those potential consequences? Even when in standby mode, a charger still draws power. Sure, the energy consumption is minimal, but it still means you’re using electricity even when nothing is charging.

Additionally, leaving chargers plugged in can lead to premature wear on their internal components. Fluctuations in voltage can cause overheating, which might result in the charger smoking, and in the worst-case scenario, possibly even starting a fire.

Moreover, there’s the risk associated with the charger coming into contact with water or metal objects, which could create a full circuit.

If your household is anything like mine, you likely have children or pets wandering around. Beyond the chance of them damaging the charger by pulling it from the wall, there’s also the risk that kids might see it as a toy, increasing their curiosity about the outlet itself.

It’s important to note that most information suggests the risk of a plugged-in charger causing a house fire is extremely low, if not negligible. Modern safety standards and checks mean that leaving your charger plugged in should generally be safe, but it doesn’t account for the issues mentioned above, which you might want to keep in mind.
