LOL! Your friend's answer to people's rude questions had me laughing.
I see your line of thinking. Back in the days (Vietnam war era) mixed raced children were shunned by Asian purist and many abandoned. I think that is no longer the case at least I hope so. Our son is Irish and Filipino (10 months old) - hoping to get him a little sis from the Fils.
Another idea that may be helpful. Perhaps an adoption agency (a Catholic children's home) near an American military base would be a good place to seek out a child of mixed heritage. Just a thought.
Thanks for sharing your thoughts, I often wonder if there are other cross cultural couples out there with questions about adopting.
Bets wishes to you and your husband, Joy : )
