[quote=Anonymous]We have had a (thus far) successful international closed adoption. We have bio child as well. There are different issues that come up ( multi racial family and abandonment issues but we did family therapy for that). Our agency would only handle closed adoptions in order to protect the children and adoptive families because they had several bad experiences with bio families extorting payments but showing no interest in the wel being of the children. We did have access to a lot of info about the bio mother though including her name and SS number equivalent so we will search for her when our teen is an adult if she wants to. We did heritage trip to the birth country of our DD and have enrolled her in language classes in the main language of her birth country so she communicate there later if she wishes to. The level of racism in society is astonishing. We try to support our DD as much as possible in navigating racism with grit and sensitivity. [/quote]
