Assuming the child is available. My husband and I are looking for a school age child (5-10 yrs old)
We’re in CA now but are moving to WA within 2 years.

My husband and I are starting to think about adoption and I am not really sure where we go from here in order to start the ball rolling or even just get some information to see if this is really something we would like to do right now. We live in San Antonio TX so if any one has any information or knows where we can find some that would be great. Thank you!

Through the WHOLE process, roughly how long does it take to adopt?

I have clicked adopt pet and it just takes me to my farm…

my hub and i would like to adopt within the USA, we have heard so many horror stories, we don’t know where to start? we are new to this, do you suggest an adoption agency or hiring a lawyer? the financial part we can handle so the money isn’t a problem…..we just don’t want someone to take our money and run or get mixed up in an illegal black market baby thing…….

thank you to all who answer )

I completely understand why a prospective adopter needs to go through various background checks and hoops but why such a high price tag? With so many children in need of loving homes it just doesn’t seem ethical to me. My husband and I would LOVE to adopt an orphaned child but the cost is outrageous…I don’t understand.
The most inexpensive adoption quote I have found is still ,000 up front.

Do you think a gay man like him, 62 yo, should adopt a little child of 14 months?

What do you think about it?

i would like to adopt a child/ children btween the ages of 3 to 10 years of age, they could have other brothers or sisters. i need help with this.

can you pick what race you want the kid? and gender? im not sure. i want to adopt in a couple years because im into girls and i don’t want to have the kids.
