[quote=Anonymous]OP back to add in regards of going to adopt immediately. I have a moral objection with the cost and time frame of domestic (and international) adoptions. Foster-to-adopt does not rack up tens of thousands of dollars of expenses. We are very financially stable, but we don't agree with waiting 1+ years and funding or financing an adoption at the price of 20k+. We would much rather foster and bond with a child or children over the time we would be waiting to process TPR and move to adoption. The goal is reunification, but around 40-50% in foster care end up being available for adoption. We're willing to adopt a child we have fostered, should the opportunity arise. We want to be parents, temporary or permanent. [/quote]
