Is through foster care or a stepparent adoption the only way to adopt a non-infant? Coz you specified "baby" the whole video. Could I adopt say a toddler or a teen through an agency or internationally?

Like she said, if you're adopting from the foster system, you don't pay any more than some basic administrative fees. It's the private adoption agencies where you really pay - for admin, legal and basically because they have people working there who need to get paid so they can have a roof over their heads.

I've been sure I wanted to adopt since I was a young teen, if not earlier. I lived next to a foster home my whole childhood, and it really taught me a lot. I may be able to have a biological child, but I've never felt the need or desire to and I'm 23 now. I know that can change at any time, but I've always felt way more passionate about giving a child a home, who otherwise may not have a home. I'm not sure I'm ready yet but I'm starting to research now so I'll be ready when the time comes.

I'm 20 but I wont be having kids until I'm 25. I wanna have 1 or 2 biologically and adopt another 1 or 2. I think its important to adopt children. Having children shouldn't be something that people just do because they want a "little me" or any other trivial reasons. I mean of course that can be apart of someone's reasoning but I think as a society we need to be putting more importance and seriousness on bringing children into this world. And knowing how expensive adoption is, the number of foster children who go "missing" and/or are trafficked is so disheartening and makes me realize how little our society gives personhood to these tiny people and treats them as commodities and pets. If you are choosing to bring a child into the world, make sure you're able to understand the full and life time job you're giving yourself

Hi Heather. I am so sorry to hear that. I know the price can be exorbitant. But there are so many ways you can fund your adoption! There are grants, the tax credit and so much more. check out my video on how to fund your adoption. I have read stories of HAPs who have adopted for free. Also, I have bootcamp coming up for for first-time HAPs who don't know where to start. I think it would be perfect for you!

Hi! My husband and I are both 21 and we have a one year old son. We are both very interested in adopting the rest of our kids within the next few years. We are waiting to buy a house, and for our son to be at least 3 or 4 years old before we start the process. If we did foster care to adoption, do you know how large that time window can be? I know with private domestic adoption it can take a few years.

That’s a great question - there are actually many more options to adopt than people realize! So it’s hard to give the best answer without knowing more about your family’s goals. I’ve found what usually what works best is filling out a form with the most important pieces for me to know and then based on that information we can get on a call to explain the next best step. Would that be helpful? I know there’s a lot of confusing/conflicting info on Google that can make things a bit overwhelming so let me know and I’ll send it over!

It's is so interesting that you can only adopt an older child from the foster care system in the US. I've always wanted to adopt, and when I am an established adult I want to adopt some older children/teens, and it seems that I have to go through the foster care system to do so. I am just worried about the children still having their birth parents in their lives- can you go through an orphanage in the foster care system? I'm not sure if that would be labeled private adoption or not. Just curious, as this is at least a decade away for me.

Hi I have a friend who wants me to adopt her child. One reason is she has other kids and simple just can’t afford another child. What do you think cost of the adoption will be and where do we need to start

Hi @Brittany! That's a great question. This would be a private adoption since she is not working with an adoption agency. That means that you will be using adoption lawyers to help you with the adoption. What state do you live in and what state does your friend live in?
