Recently I went to see the movie “Mother and Child” with hopes of viewing a positive and enlightening movie about adoption.  The movie has three main story lines which eventually merge together.  One story involves a woman, played by Annette Bening, who placed a newborn girl for adoption almost thirty years prior and [...]]]></description>

As you research adoption, it&#8217;s normal to have some fear.  Some of the fear could be in regards to something tangible, like the amount of money an adoption costs.  Or you may be afraid of the entire adoption process because you don&#8217;t know yet what the necessary steps are.  You could even [...]]]></description>

So if you are going to adopt, are you ready to take some risks?  Sure there are the obvious risks like selecting an agency or picking a country to adopt from.  But what about the smaller risks which you may not be expecting?  It&#8217;s impossible to be prepared for ever adoption situation [...]]]></description>

Did you know that every decision you make when you decide to adopt you may need to defend?  People will have opinions about every choice you make, large or small.  For example, recently I worked at a women&#8217;s convention for Infertility and Adoption Support Inc. and I heard two very different comments about [...]]]></description>

There are adoptions every day without reporters and news cameras present.  These are the adoptions which are routine and have happy circumstances.  When the media is present around an adoption case, it usually means there is something negative about it and therefore news for the public.  This is a sad fact about [...]]]></description>
