Domestic adoption: The birth parent looks through a book of adoptive parents and chooses someone to parent her child.
International Adoption: Adoptive parents fill out paperwork, the government approves it and the parents wait. The adoption agency matches the parents with a child that best fits their family.
There is absolutely no going to an "orphanarium" (I'm going to assume you mean orphanage) and picking a kid that looks the best. |
