[quote=Anonymous]1. Did not have other kids 2. Adopted internationally, through an agency and the other government—not facilitated by a private attorney. The latter can be shadey, with regard to ethics/coercion. 3. Process took around a year. 4. Child was 14 months old when I got her 5. Cost was close to 20K (including home study, agency fees, travel etc)—close To 20 years ago 6. It is scary but SO worth it. My daughter is a joy. Adopting her was the best decision I ever made. The live and experience of raising a child is comparable to having a biological child (I have been told this by people who did both). Just a different way to attain the same outcome. Go for it!![/quote]
