4. Do you currently have any biological children? How many?

5. Do you currently have any interracial adopted children? How many?




6. Do you currently have any children adopted within the same ethnical backgrounds?




7. Did you find the criteria to adopt different for those looking to adopt interracially?




8. Did the criteria’s affect your decision on adopting interracially?




9. Was time an issue when considering whether to adopt an interracial child or not? In which ways?



10. Was money an issue when considering whether to adopt an interracial child or not? In which ways?




11. How did your family prepare for the arrival of your adoptive child?




12. Has your child integrated well into your family?





13. A. Has your family taken part in your child’s cultural traditions?


B. In which ways?



14. Do you believe that taking part in the cultural traditions and other aspects of your child’s culture has had a positive or negative impact on your child? How?

Try cross posting in the transracial adoption section. I'll answer when I have time after my son eats.
