Help!!! Adoption Advice Needed?

I am looking at adoption. By the time I would be ready to adopt I would be married for two to three years. I'd be 23 or 24 with my spouse being 33 or 34. I need any information about my chances of adopting or how to do it. We want to adopt at least four children. I'm very pro-adoption and would really hate to not be able to adopt because I'm ignorant about it. Any help would be really great. Domestic and international adoption possible.

I think that you should start by talking to an attorney. And from there you can contact an agency to do private or international adoptions. I dont think that adopting internationally even if ur not from the country is actually very SELFLESS. I am sure it is very difficult to learn the culture and even the language if need be. I think you are very brave and that you should just contact an attorney. Good luck and the best to the both of you!

dont adopt internationally unless you or your husband were raised in that country. dont be selfish

You will get all sorts of answers here but perhaps the simplest way for you to get info is to just pick up the phone and call your local CPS and ask them. There are so many programs they offer and they have info sessions and intake workers to answer your questions that you really couldn't get better first hand info for your area then through that way.

Once you speak to them, THEN you can have a baseline to start talking to private agencies if you wish or even internationally if you have the $$. Either way, I suggest using them as a start point. You will get more info pertinant to your personal situation.
