[quote=Anonymous]1. Did you already have kids? Yes, 3 bio kids. 2. Did you adopt privately through an agency or through the foster system? It’s not a private adoption if you adopt through an agency. Private is when you have a lawyer And work directly with the birth mom. We are doing an international adoption through an agency. 3. How long did the process take? It’s not done yet for us. Total it will be about 1.5 years. 4. What age was your child(ren) when you adopted? He will be 1.5. 5. How much did the adoption cost? I don’t know. When all is said and done with travel costs included it will probably be $50K. 6. Anything you learned along the way that would be helpful to someone considering adoption or anything you did differently you would share?) We are adopting from South Korea. I am an adoptee myself. I would see be cautious of the overly saccharine stories you hear and listen to what adult adoptees say. [/quote]
