There seems to be a lot of discussion regarding interracial adoptions involving Caucasian adoptive parents and adopted children of a variety of other ethnicities. But what about the other way around? I'm part Asian & DH is Caucasian--we would like to adopt a child of any ethnicity (Caucasian, AA, Hispanic, Asian, Native Amer, etc). But I am wondering if we might encounter problems finding a match b/c non-Asian birthparents would have a bias against an Asian adoptive parent?

Oh, I think you are very highly mistaken. You wouldn't believe why some of the bmoms on here chose the parents they did.

Ours chose us because I work for a vet. People are chosen because of the size of their families, and even their ethnicity. What they can give to a child with being diverse.

It will happen when it is supposed to so sit back and enjoy the ride.

I was a little worried about that, too, as I am Asian and DH is Caucasian. Our worker didn't think it was an issue. We ended up being chosen by the agency, not the birthparent and the only birthparent who didn't choose us chose an amom who was going to breastfeed. (Our sib set that we adopted is Caucasian-Latino.) Best of luck to you!
