Hi,
When we were researching countries I was lead to Korea, but then my husband did not meet the weight requirements. (If he had lost like 20 pounds he would.) Then I realized because I was on marriage #3, but I'm my husband's first (and only) wife we could not adopt. They do not allow more than 1 divorce. I found a couple of other countries with this restriction. Now in my case I had no previous children by choice, they were short marriages, just made a couple of mistakes along the way to finding the perfect husband. But of course they don't care, they just put you in the unstable marriage category I guess. So just like with weight they just lump you into an unhealthy, more likely to die young category. I don't think it's right and I think each situation should be looked at, but I also do understand the reasoning in some ways. (Though I'm glad it's not all countries.)
We ended up adoption from Kaz and now realize that is where our daughter was anyway, so in the end it all worked out of the best.
Acutally our agency's people in Kaz had weight restrictions, but my husband was okay for them, not sure what it was, but it must have been a little more flexable than Korea. But it was just the people they work with in Kaz that had this rule, that Kaz in general.
Good luck to you, you will find where your child is!!!!
