We want to adopt in area...No disrespect taken. :)<br /><br />We want to adopt in area where there is a need. There are prospective adoptive couples all over the country who are more then open to taking a Caucasian child into their home, and that is wonderful. There are also agencies all over the country who are actively recruiting families who are open to adopting African American babies because they don't have enough families willing to adopt them. We have specifically prepared ourselves through education, purposeful relationships, and intentionally living in a diverse area to parent an AA child. Because of all that, and feeling a specific call to adopt an AA child, that is all we are open to.Elizabethhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07781777966873779828noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1149943933118579164.post-58371167695521591692012-02-28T12:56:50.866-08:002012-02-28T12:56:50.866-08:00I have a question. I mean this with no disrespect....I have a question. I mean this with no disrespect. <br />Why wouldn't you take a caucasian child who meets all of your other criteria besides the skin tone? I just don't understand. We are in the process to adopt and hope we are placed with a child of color because our daughter is and don't want either one to feel like they are the black sheep in the family. You don't have any reason to write me back, I am just curious. Again I hope this doesn't come across as rude, I am just curious.annieglanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14858946400846580793noreply@blogger.com
