[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]A PP or two mentioned single mothers by choice, and i am also SMC.   I went the foster care route and I adopted my first child when she was 14 months old.  She is now 3.5 and the birth-mom has requested that her new baby boy also be adopted by me (she does not know me personally but she has my profile. ).  So, I will have my 2nd baby home in a matter of weeks! I kept all my  info at the agency up to date the past couple of years in case of a teeny weeny chance something like this may happen.  My dad is on the edge of his seat to meet his new grandson! [/quote]

Are you paying fees (via the agency) for the birth mom's housing, medical, maintenance, both for this adoption and your first child? [/quote]

The expenses depend on how  you adopted.  Some states don't  allow for  birth parent expenses, others do.  If they went through the foster care route, no, expenses aren't paid and often its not a voluntary placement as there was abuse or neglect.

You clearly don't know a lot about adoption.  [/quote]
