What to Expect With Your Domestic Adoption Home Study

[@Lucrecebundy]

Thanks for watching! Have you started your home study?

[@GodforChildren]

Are you Accredited to do a foreign home study in any state? Only the home study not the whole adoption?

[@ShayeHunt]

Do you have a video on what they ask your bio children or children already in the home during the home study?

[@easycenterny1905]

Thank you for helping me a lot your video

[@ashleymerriam7713]

Thanks for the video! I’m curious to know if it’s an instant fail if the house is currently under remodel. I’m guessing so :/

[@travischarles7762]

I am willing

[@SelitaEbabe86]

For surrogacy, my sister in law is going to carry our child. How do they conduct a home study in this case?

[@ShayeHunt]

Do you have a video on questions they ask your bio children?

[@timatim295]

I am adopting my little brother who already lives in the household. What should i expect?

[@heathersheaven7933]

So.........PTSD can't adopt child? I live in Illinois

[@Lucrecebundy]

No...that's not what I said. I said check with your agency.

Hi Lucrece , my daughter is already in the system but she’s not getting any action😢 is it maybe because she has been living with her husband for 10 years but she divorce him four years ago, but now there just living together, she’s been waiting for three years for a baby and nothing , What can you advice her , thank you so much

Also, if you do a closed adoption, Can you know who the birthmother is?

[@Lucrecebundy]

Usually a closed adoption has to be on both sides. If the birth mother also wants a closed adoption, then you would be a good match for her. If she doesn't, she would pick a family who wants open adoption. The details of the closed adoption depend on the parties.

Do you have an email where I can ask questions or a session that I can schedule with you to ask questions?

[@Lucrecebundy]

Unfortunately I don't do Q&As on the phone wirh folks. But if you leave your questions in the comments here, I will start answering them in my videos :)

[@dancing0nthe3dge]

Are the home visits spontaneous?

[@veronicaj4126]

Lucrece, Do you help adoption in all states? In Tennessee and Florida? Also, can you adopt a baby in the United states or out at birth, rather than having to wait months or years?

[@Lucrecebundy]

I do help adoptive parents in all states yes! There are actually many more options to adopt than people realize! So it's hard to give the best answer about where to start without knowing more about your family's goas. I've found what usually 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 steps. Would that be helpful? I know there's a lot of confusing/conflicting information on google that can make things a bit overwhelming so let me know and I'll send it over!

[@fireinateacup89]

My chief concern is religious discrimination because I'm not a Christian or religious, and judging by the mere titles of many of your videos, my fears are valid! It's tragic how many quality people are rejected because they're wrongly disqualified just because they don't buy into religious dogma. So many kids are needlessly blocked from loving, intelligent and capable families. I hope you'll reconsider your position and stop making videos that encourage religious prejudice and extremist ideas. It's so ironic that Christians talk about persecution when in fact they are the main demographic that is supported in this country! A true American would give equal rights to people of all perspectives based solely on their personal character and ability!

How is it fair when the parents cannot have kids for a long time you guys abuse them with these ridiculous rules and then on top of it charge $50,000 for a kid why in the would anybody want to adopt with these ridiculous abusive

[@daryldixon5280]

it's because Virginia really doesn't want happy healthy kids they want Democratic voters later in life

[@daniellebillingsley2003]

Asking a prospective parent to show basic preparedness for bringing a child into their home is not abusive. Placing a child in a home without doing the proper research to ensure the family knows what to expect is MUCH MORE LIKELY to result in the abuse or neglect of that child. As we say in my family, Remember your Ps: proper prior preparation prevents poor performance.

@@daniellebillingsley2003 when you charge money to adopt kids that’s human trafficking do not give me that bullshit the whole system is corrupt people that have kids abuse their own kids even they molested them even killed them have you seen the news or do you even watch the news or are you all about making money off these innocent kids that deserve a home

[@songoftheblackunicorn666]

​@@daniellebillingsley2003adoption is abusive period. You should first of all do everything possible to rehabilitate Mom baby and Dad to stay together, if that fails you should do Everything possible for the kid to stay within at least the first cousin range of familial relationship, if that fails every relative that is up to third cousins should be evaluated for guardianship. If that also fails then the ethnic community of origin should be searched for a match and a legal guardianship allowing for care should be granted NOT adoption. Adoption strips the identity and legal rights of the child and is NOT in their best interests and furthermore you can designate anyone on the planet you want to for the purposes of inheritance so it is unnecessary unless you are part of some kind of monarchy that allows an adoptee to be considered in the line of succession to strip the identity of any human being. If all that fails then you can consider a legal guardianship to appropriate strangers. But there is no money in that for the adoption industry so we legally traffic babies and young kids instead
