Nothing against international adoptions and helping children from other
countries, they work great sometimes. But however I would suggest doing
a lot of research, asking questions if it means asking the same question
over and over again, and if money allows I would suggest going over to
the country so you see the conations before adopting.
Thanks,
Anthony

Subject: Re: What's up - adoption stuff
Hi Beth,
I was reading a magazine on adoption while I was waiting for Alex at
the
Jewish Social Service Agency. I can share some of the stuff I was
reading. I
already becasue I mentioned that some foreign don't have a problem with
disabled parents. It also mentioned several countries like Poland who
have
kids they want to place. I have friends who have adopted who would no
doubt
be willing to talk to you. In fact 2 friends - one adopted a child from
China and one a child from Paraguy. Both kids are really super. Oh and a
family at chiurch got a child from India. Wow guess I know than I
thought.
Next time I take Alex to therapy - I can find out the name of the
magazine
there. When I was looking to adopt - I was looking for a special needs
kid.
But I ended up with Amber - now ex-step sister and now I have Alex.
Please
hang in there - there is child who needs you!!
Brightest Blessings - Trisha
