I'm not sure of the NY law, but we were offered a sibling group of 5 when we still had 4 of our 5 birth kids at home. Usually they just apporve us for the number of beds we have available, up to 4 per bedroom, but in that case they turned a blind eye to the fact that we didn't even have quite enough beds at the time. So there doesn't seem to be a limit. I also know of a foster familiy here that has 9 teenage boys and another that has 6 adopted kids in a single-wide trailer and were given another 2 little ones - which seemed very crowded to me when I visited. Thanks for the leads. For those who've done international adoptions, how do you travel for any length of time with large families at home? We can't leave ours for 2 weeks! especially since we have a dairy farm! Are some countries more flexible about this than others? And age limits? We are both 52.
