I've always viewed any kind of adoption as a great process for prividing a couple with a child and a child with a home.
I have 4 cousins from 2 different familes who are adopted (they are all international: Guatamala, Chile, Ghana, and China) & I have never heard anything negative from them or their parents about adoption (the oldest is 19, the youngest is 11).
I've always assumed that I would adopt myself.
As I've gotten older, I've seen the racial and cultural issues that are attached to IA and how difficult it must feel to look differently than the rest of your family and get sares and odd, uncomfortable questions.
With all that into consideration, I still see international adoption as a good thing.
What are your thoughs on it.
