fatburg 07-20-2005, 10:53 PM Well, my wife got on the plane this morning at 9am heading over to China and won't be back until the 4th. What really sucks is I'm gonna be out of town for work for 6 or 7 days so it will be hard to talk to her on the phone. She's over there with my brother, his wife and their 4yr old who are adopting a little girl. I just hope they all come home safe to me.
R1up0n1 07-20-2005, 11:08 PM Lonelyness blows @ss...I deal with it everyday since I moved to PA.
GSXR1000DJ 07-20-2005, 11:08 PM Best of luck to your brother and sister-in-law. Do they get to pick the child? And isn't it pretty costly to adopted from China? Do oyou know how much they are paying. I think I heard once before its like $20,000. Is that about right?
fatburg 07-20-2005, 11:12 PM That's pretty close I believe. He will get some of that back over the next 5 years from tax breaks which is nice. He is getting a little girl, they got her picture when she was about 4 months old, she will be about 10 months when they actually get her. She is very cute.
GSXR1000DJ 07-20-2005, 11:15 PM Tell them I wish them the best of luck and congrats on the new addition to the family. :cheers:
fatburg 07-20-2005, 11:17 PM Thanks a bunch, will do. I'll post up some pics when she gets back for everyone.

Gas Man 07-22-2005, 12:00 PM I can't believe this but at first (in the first page) Jetski was posting a good angle on the adoption idea. Again, I can't believe I agree, but I too don't understand the adopting in China thing... I feel that we have too many kids here to adopt. So it's hard...shouldn't it be? With all the bad people out there. But that's just my :2cents: I think it everytime I see somebody with a little asian girl. (always is a girl)

The thing about adopting in the states is the parents have LEGAL rights over that child until the adoption is completely final...which could take up to a year...at any given time the legal parents could back out and take that child back. Not only is that determental to the child, but also to the family. And it happens more than you think...CPS are such idiots..and THATS why so many kids in the US die by their parents hands everyday.

JayMax 07-22-2005, 07:07 PM :readng:
Not to stir more s#!t up, but you do realize that Jetskifast is intially correct. Because of the population problem in China, many smaller villages used to actually abandon or outright kill baby girls, if the family had more than one. They've obviously become less barbaric, but that means more children are up for adoption. Up for adoption in a place that didn't 'want' them anyways. So China is more than happy to let others adopt their children.
Many parents in the US hoping to adopt find themselves frustrated at what it takes to adopt here.
Why adopt a child from China?--- my answer
We looked into adoption for the first time when we were having fertility problems. The issue became academic once we had our biological daughter, but there was no way I could adopt from the US:
Where I trained in psychiatry, they did lots of adoption studies in Scandinavia, where they keep track of both parents and kids. It seems that alcoholism, drug abuse and antisocial behavior are all strongly hereditary. Having a kid is a crap shoot, genetically. We try instinctively to better our odds by choosing our mates. Given the prevalence of abortions here, most of the kids available for adoption in the US come with a greater-than-average risk of problems, in my opinion.
Private adoption? Unless you know someone, you end up going to a baby broker who charges so much that the whole thing smacks of baby selling to me.
And even if you know someone, all of these "birth mothers" who change their minds can cost a lot of money and heartbreak. And other young ladies who have to be kept off booze and drugs during their pregnancy.
Another stopper: our American court system now appears to be using a form of property law to adjudicate the custody of children. No longer is the best interests of the child paramount. Now, biological forebears have "rights" to come and take away an adopted child. I shiver at the prospect.
So when our daughter told us she wanted a little sister on January 6, 1995, we looked again, and there was China. Actually, we got the Report On Intercountry Adoption, then decided on China. My issues:
Children are available who have been abandoned for economic reasons, and not drugs, etc. Of course, many children are abandoned for medical reasons (cleft lip and cleft palate are common in abandoned children), but there is no reason to think there would be an increased risk of behavior problems. About the same odds as for a kid of my own.
You adopt your child in a legal proceeding in China. For residents of most states, there are no U.S. legal proceedings other than naturalization.
We went with China's Children because they are in business to connect parents and kids. They're not so kid-centered that, well... one organization my wife contacted wanted us to take a handicapped child when they found out I'm an MD ... and they're not so parent-centered as to abuse the system to get kids. On the other hand, one of the reasons that the agency fee was relatively low is that we were expected to get our own documents together. Other agencies do that for you, or you can use a document service like Vitalcheck -- at 1-800-255-2414 (info courtesy of the A-Parents-China list; subscribe at a-parents-china-request@shore.net).
