My cousin is in eastern europe picking up her children. She'll be back next week. Her adoption came to 38,000.00 for a 7 year old boy and his 3 year old sister. I adopted a newborn in Washington DC (1998) and it was only $2000.00 (including homestudy & followup, court costs..etc).

Every agency is different. You might make 2 dozen calls before you find an agency you trust with fees you can afford

THERE ARE EIGHT DIFFERENT WAYS YOUR CHILD CAN DIE ON A CORDED WINDOW TREATMENT
Read "How Safe Cords Kill" at www.pfwbs.org

THREE CHILDREN HAVE STRANGLED TO DEATH SINCE ANGEL DIED ON 8/11/09.
Brandyn Coppedge died on 9/11/09. Rosie Smith died on 9/30/09 and Thapelo Kwofie died on 11/1/09. The Consumer Product Safety Commission is no longer recommending safety kits. They are now recommending that anywhere children live or visit should be free of corded window products.
