Can you answer maybe’s question about Adoption?:

An adoption agency recently said that open records must be balanced against the right to privacy that was “lobbied for by birth parents.”

Who are these birth parents who lobbied for privacy? Lobbying is a public act, when you testify or submit a letter in support of legislation it becomes part of the public record. Therefore we should be able to identify the birth parents who lobbied for privacy. Does anyone know who they are? When did they testify? At which hearing were they present?

Were they allowed to lobby anonymously? Should we allow anonymous lobbying in a democracy?

Waiting Children To Be Adopted

Can you answer Alicia N’s question about Adoption?:

I know this probably sounds really stupid and I apologize. But I’m writing a book and there happens to be a spot where a girl goes looking for her biological mother without her adoptive parents help. Where would she go for the information; an adoption agency or the orphanage where she lived? And what’s the difference between the two, exactly?

Thanks for reading and any help is appreciated!

Families Adoption Agency

Can you answer *-Brox-*’s question about Adoption?:

My husband and I have been together for 5 years. However, we just got married this saturday [7/7]. But, we have been trying to have a baby for the last year or so. We’ve talked about adoption, and we are just wondering alot of things. Like, do you have to own a home? Are their requirements as far as income? How long do you have to be married, how old do you have to be? And is it possbile for someone to just sign custody over to us instead of going thru an adoption agency?

If anyone knows anything about adoption please share. thanks.

Can you answer Goddess Nikki’s question about Adoption?:

My husband and I are looking to adopt a baby. We’d prefer a domestic adoption, but we still cant afford an adoption agency. I’d really like a newborn for my first. I want the whole experience. Later we plan to adopt a child from foster care. I know many people say if you cant afford an agency how can you afford a child, but not a lot of people realize agencies generally cost about 25,000. What parent has that laying around? Serious answers only please

Can you answer Shannon J’s question about Adoption?:

I was originally told 7-9 wks from our adoption agency. Now there’s apparently a new step, the Referral Acceptance, that can take 2-5 months before you get a travel approval. I’m just wondering if anyone has an idea as to how long the average wait time has been…
