No, I didn't take offense......and I'm thinking that the monies would be to go 'toward' the adoption expenses, as you mentioned.
But, something you brought up that I DIDN'T think about (and really I should have)....is that IF this were a wide spread thing, agencies would probably take advantage of it and raise their fees even more! THAT is a very real possibility.
If you've been in the adoption 'ring' long enough (and perhaps you have).....you'd agree that once the federal gov't put the 'adoption tax credit' into force, MANY agencies/attorneys took that as full permission to raise THEIR fees too!!!! Grrrrrrrrrrrr!
(Yet, some continue to say that everyone should consider this credit as a means to 'pay back' their adoption expenses, and it's just not always true!!!!)

Anyway, thanks to all for the discussion. I appreciate it!

Sincerely,

Linny
