[quote=Anonymous]OP here again. I do agree that there are coercive practices throughout (infant) domestic and international adoption. Absolutely not every domestic infant adoption, but enough where you have to go in with open eyes, ask a lot of hard questions, follow up and verify those answers (especially with international adoption), and be prepared to walk away from situations that raise red flags. I don’t think people coming from infertility are always emotionally or mentally in a good place to do that. I know I’m certainly not. Not because I couldn't, but because that feels like too much to take on at this point ... for us. We're going to do more research and attend info sessions, but we're now leaning towards regular fostering. We'd be selective about what kids we take because of our existing child, but I've spoken with some friends who work in the system and that’s what I think will be best for us. Considering special needs infant adoption too, but need to think on that more.[/quote]
