My daughter is doing a paper on adoption, this is a persuasive paper. We need some newspaper articles, with the page number, what paper they came from, the title and the author. If you could email me the articles that would be great. If we can touch the high schoolers hearts, maybe in the furture more orphans will be adopted.
thanks dana

Hi Dana,

I read a great newspaper article a while ago about Chinese adoption and just found it online. Since I am not sure if I can post the link here, I am sending you a PM with the link. I hope your daughter can use it.

Yes, you can post newspaper links.

Alrighty then.
Here is the link to the newspaper article "And Zoe Makes Three". This is a story about an adoption from China. I first read it when it was published 2 years ago.

And Zoe Makes Three - The Boston Globe

Jeanne Marie Laskas is a writer for the Washington Post who has adopted from China if your daughter wants some personal experience articles.

This story of a Wisconsin family that adopted seven children - many of them special needs kids - ran in the Twin Cities Star-Tribune a few days ago:

Wis. family: Adopted, adapting, Amen

Dates, author, etc., are in the story. The article was published in print on the front page of the local section, page B1 (I think).

You can also find some relevant data here:
Adoption facts
This was a sidebar to the main story. The data is mostly specific to Minnesota.
