[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous] My guess is it wasn't through foster care, simply because it's very unusual to adopt infants through foster care because of the timeline and court process for terminating parental rights. Not that it never happens, just that infants are more likely adopted through voluntary placements.[/quote] About 135,000 children are adopted in the United States each year. Of non-stepparent adoptions, about 59% are from the child welfare (or foster) system, 26% are from other countries, and 15% are voluntarily relinquished American babies.
