Would I do this again knowing what I know now? Yes. The two kids I have at home now were adopted at 4 and 10 and are a lot of fun. Was it hard work to get them to this point? YES, hardest work I've ever done.(they are 11 and 17 now).
All of my kids had fun moments except one. I enjoy them as adults now(except the one). Were they hard to parent? Yes, I often felt like this must be Hell.
By the time a child reaches 10 or 12, they've lived threw things many of us couldn't ever imagine. Their reality is different then ours.
The first 3 years of a child's life can effect a child's ability to attach(especially the first two).
As for interpreting profiles? After awhile you figure out what they mean(and we love to help new people interpret)
If I had the space and my dh were willing, I'd adopt again now.
