Does anybody know how much does it cost to adopt a pet (i.e. dog)? What is the average cost that you pay?

to adopt a white infant baby. Also how long would it take and how would I get started.

I was just wondering how much it costs to adopt a child.

So i have finally found what i want in life and what i love to do which is help kids, teens and young adults. I have always wanted to work for an adoption agency so should I study psychology or sociology? Help!
I DON’T want to separate kids from their parents. I wanted to work for an adoption agency to give them homes and interview the parents. Sorry if I confused anyone in my wording.

My neighbor and his wife are having the worst time trying to conceive. The stress isn’t helping putting an incredible strain on the marriage. They have decided to go the adoption route. They have been told however that the only kids available right now are ones with special needs (i.e. autism). They are prepared to give their love to a special child like this but there is a big roadblock. Her parents are "old country" east european and insist that they do not adopt such a child since in their old country these children were either euthanized or put in institutions. Now normally they would just ignore the parents but the parents will cut off the monthly "help" they get from them to pay the mortgage.

Should they listen to the parents and keep trying naturally, or should they adopt a less than perfect child? Thanks for your help as they are really at a crossroads
OK, my choice of the phrase "less than perfect" is not my feelings, I was merely trying to mirror the feelings that the parents had instilled in them…no disrespect intended to any of Gods children

I was just wondering how old do you have to be to adopt a child or children?
I was wondering because in the future I was thinking about having my own child then adopting another child the same age. Thank you
