[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I worked in international adoption many years ago. There was an unspoken recognition that white Americans would rather adopt white or Chinese ("white adjacent") babies from overseas, with all of the hassle and expense that involves, than adopt U.S.-born Black children.[/quote] DH and I are just beginning to consider adopting (I’m pro choice, not one of these whackjobs who is hoping for an increased “domestic supply of infants”) and literally my only hesitancy in adopting a Black child would be that I would afraid that I would not do a good enough job connecting said child to his or her culture. It would be [i]very[/i] important to me to not muck that up. [/quote] But you're confident that you won't f^ck up connecting an Asian or Eastern European child to their cultural heritage? Or just won't care as much?[/quote]
