How to adpot a child from mexico or guatemala?

Question

my daughters are half hispanic, and i have thought about adopting before, where would i even start?

Answer 1

You'd start with an adoption agency.  Guatemala is temporarily closed right now, I don't know about Mexico...  look in here for further information: http://travel.state.gov/family/adoption/...

Answer 2

Have you considered adoption a child from your native country?  All countries have children without parents, and I don't understand why anyone would adopt from another country.

Answer 3

I do not believe there are any adoptions from Mexico and Guatemala is temporarily closed due to some issues involving fraud.

Answer 4

To answer the question directly above me.  I am from America, and I have always considered adopting from another country.  My reasoning for not adopting from within the USA is because the children in America that need to be adopted are in much better living conditions than say the children in Mexico or Africa or any other country.
