[quote=Anonymous]We have adopted twice from Korea through Barker and couldn't be happier. Timing is not controlled by Barker (or any other US agency), but by process in Korea. The Korean govt is trying to encourage domestic adoption so it's taking longer for a baby to be cleared for international placement, hence the longer wait times. If you're open to China, you should also learn more about Barkers china waiting child program. The children are designated by china as special needs but those needs may be something very mild and fixable in the US. You can specify exactly which needs you might be open to. Last summer, the wait times for the program were pretty short. My advice is to meet with people at barker and any other agency you are considering and see which one feels right to you. This is a process that can have some bumps and it helps to feel comfortable/confident in the staff you're working with. [/quote]
