You will have no problem adopting from Guatemala due to your age. However you might want to consider adopting a slightly older child, as it might be tough to pay for college on a retirement income...just a thought.

I have had plenty of families adopt infants when they were older, and they make fantastic parents...they are mature, financially stable, and really ready to commit their time and energy to a child. It seems to be a real win-win situation.

Good Luck to you!

Older parents
My husband is 55 and I am 53 yrs old. We have a bio son who is 7 (we were late starters) and we are adopting a 5 yr old boy from Guatemala (we are waiting for PGN approval). You should have no problem at all adopting from Guatemala at your ages. Good luck!
