[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous] THERE ARE HUNDREDS of children right in the District that need homes NOW. It will cost you nothing to adopt and they will be placed so much sooner than if you go international. UGH :([/quote] This is quite simply false. I happen to largely agree with you that adopting from the foster system makes more sense (in many circumstances- not all) then adopting internationally. (and I have adopted from the foster system before anyone gets riled up about my comment). But comments like yours do a disservice to everyone involved. You are willfully spreading misinformation. I just did a quick search-- on the adoptuskids website (which does not include all- but does include many of the kids currently available for adoption who are not already in adoptive placements) there are currently 26 children listed in DC. Of those 25- are teenagers-- 1 is younger and in a wheelchair. [/quote]
