I have started one, on the MSN message boards. I am more than willing to adjust the settings as we go along and get suggestions, but right now it's set up that members have to be 'approved' to join...believe me, criteria is nothing, just want to prevent advertisers and untruthful situations from coming in. I called it "MI Baby's Playgroup". The link to go to it is...

On the right side, there is a column of things to click on, such as 'apply to join'.
I am inviting all MI couples who have adopted transracial or biracial children to join!
The idea is to have a place just for those who want to share advice, ideas, learn and grow together as Transracial or Biracial couples doing their best to raise our children. In other words, a non-professional support group. From there, anyone can set up play dates, 'reunions', group seminars, or whatever they want to try.
As for the adoption, I am on edge again, because we haven't heard from her in a week. She was supposed to return a phone call from the social worker in her area, and hasn't. She was supposed to go to the dr's this week, yet missed her appointment. She was also supposed to send some more bills for us to pay, but we haven't received those yet either. All of this was discussed about a week ago. If this placement is not going to happen, I would just like to know NOW, rather than in two weeks when the baby is due.
