Need adoption advice

[Catty1]

I understand. However, I was aware that, as you and joycenalex said, that it had become a horribly long and difficult process, unless the child was special needs.

This happens in Canada, the article was about Canadians...and it IS a shame that adoptions at home can be so impossible.

Still, the article is a good read as it is from Feb of 2008, and outlines some of the frustrations and processes as well.

Thanks for your understanding. I just felt like I needed to comment because so many people do not understand and jump to conclusions without knowing the facts of the case. It is very easy to get defensive.

I agree with you 100%!! We have 2 adopted children too; not from China though.... Our son Jo is from South Korea (23) and our daughter Indra is from India (20)
It is very difficult here to get "permission" to adopt, so everyone who gets selected is truly very much motivated!!
