Does anyone have a link to a good adoptive parent support network?

I would like to start having discussions with other adoptive parents. However, most of the support/discussion groups I have found meet during the day. This isn't good for me.

www.adoptionthreads.com is an online adoption community, while all members of the triad are welcomed, there is a large adoptive parent presence there. The discussions are for the most part quite lively and the adoptive parents' experiences range from international to domestic, private to foster-adopt. |

if you go to todays parent (the magazine) or possibly parent magazine they have communities there. I am a frequent user of todays parent, and there is a forum spefically for adoptive parents. They are a great bunch of people (most of them!! lol) and very supportive no matter what you want to talk about
Good luck! |

Just go to the Yahoo Groups page and do a search for what kind of group you're looking for. |
