A minority baby is easier to adopt than a Caucasian baby.
Few things are more rewarding than adopting a minority baby. Minority baby's are usually easier to adopt than Caucasian babies and are categorized as having a different ethnic, racial or religious presence in society. According to Indiana adoption attorneys Kirsh and Kirsh, couples and singles interested in adopting a minority child often have a baby placed in their home much faster than families seeking a Caucasian child. (See References 1) Working with a reputable adoption agency or attorney is key in successfully adopting a minority baby.
Instructions
1. Raise enough money to adopt the baby. According to Sandra Couillard, executive director of the Child Adoption Resource Association of New London, adoption of a minority child could cost around $14,000 with the fees paying for the agencies to operate, evaluate potential adoptive families, and pay for legal expenses and advertising. In some cases they are responsible for the birth mother's expenses. (See References 2)
2. Contact a reputable adoption agency or attorney and express your interest in adopting a minority baby. You can find a reputable adoption agency or attorney by asking for referrals from physicians, peers and community members who've had experience with minority baby adoptions.
3. Participate in a home study. According to Heart Gallery of America, a home study explores your motivation for adoption and determines which type of children you are willing and able to parent. (See References 3)
4. Wait patiently while your caseworker locates a minority baby and performs all legal requirements necessary. According to Heart Gallery of America, the entire adoption process including orientation, training, background-screening, home visits and the legal formalities take about nine months to complete.
