Adopt a baby in the USA?

How long would it take to go about adopting a bi-racial baby in the usa? (Half mexican half white or half asian half white?)
I know its faster to adopt bi-racial babies than it is to adopt white babies.
How long would it take and how much money?
What do I do to go about doing this?

i know you don't "Buy" a child.
But you do have to pay fees to adopt one.
And also I am no newbie...This is just a new account. So stop judging and just answer the question.

Yes its true bi racial and child of Hispanic origin have a shorter time period wait than a Caucasian baby. Because in a country like U.S that is Caucasian dominated people want to adopt within their race and so the demand for a white child or their race is far more.
It took us 8 months from paperwork to bringing home our baby. Look into the phone directory and contact a few adoption agencies that handle bi-racial adoption. Cost would vary.
ETA- Whoaaa people are assuming you are very young ? On basis of what? They must be clairvoyants.
I'm sorry people here assume every one, even the newbie must know the proper adoption language and write good English. Plz note attacking is abusing the rules. |

You're not old enough to qualify to adopt a child.
When you are old enough you can contact Dept of social Services about children who need homes.
In the meantime, perhaps volunteer in a big-brother type program and remember that babies are not special orders but real live human beings and perhaps be a bit more tactful about how you word your questions about type/speed and price! |

Don't you think you should ask your parents if they will allow you to adopt first? I mean you don't have the guts to stand up to them and live your own life so maybe you should get their permission.
You ARE too young to adopt. How old do you have to be to work at Red Robin? You were kidding with that one right? You aren't even mature enough to know the legalities of employment, how on earth do you think you will manage to come up with the tens of thousands of dollars you need to adopt? How do you think you will cope with having EVERY aspect of your life scrutinized by social workers?
Do yourself (and the children out there in adopt-o-land) a favour, move in with your BF and make a baby the old fashioned way. |

It isn't necessarily faster, regardless of race all it takes is for the birthmother to pick you. Because most people only want a caucasian baby, caucasian birthmoms are shown many more profiles to choose from, so your odds of getting picked from that list go down, but it doesn't necessarily mean you won't get picked.
Adopting a biracial baby just because its faster is not right. There is a lot more to think about than just getting a baby right away. Find a local agency and meet with them to answer all of your questions. Yahoo Answers is not the place for that.
Good luck! |

then say what u'd like...its sounds like a shop...but i dont mean it to sound like that..by sorry
