korean babies adoption
Why is foreign adoption so difficult, is there an easier way?
My husband and I would love to adopt a baby girl, the problem is everytime I look into a specific country or agency we don’t meet the criteria. Examples, you have to be married three years and not have more than four children living in the home. Even though are home is quite large and there is plenty of room. We have only been married a year but together we share six children. Our income is great and our home is nice so why is this so difficult. I don’t understand the cookie cutter mold, I also learned that korean adoption you can’t be older than 45 when the baby arrives and right now my husband is 44 (I am only 34). Is this hopeless or am I not looking in the right direction?
You should have no problem adopting a child out of U.S. foster care. Is there a reason you are set on international adoption?
