AboutRoberta Rosenberg Expertise International Adoption - I am an active member of the adoption community. I have 3 children, 2 adopted from Korea. I can answer all questions about Korean adoption, most questions on international. What I do not know I can easily find out.
(PLEASE NOTE: I cannot answer any questions involving immigration/family adoption legal issues. These matters of local/state/federal law should be discussed with a qualified attorney.)
Experience Beyond my own personal experience as an adoptive parent, I'm also the developer of several websites related to adoption. Adopting from Korea (www.adoptkorea.com) and AdoptShoppe (www.adoptshoppe.com) are just two of my current sites.

Question My husband and I are considering adoption fron China in a few years (we aren't yet 30 years old). We would prefere a little girl. Normally what is the wait time to bring a child home? What is the age (we want as young as possible). Lastly, from start to finish how much money should we expect to need? Thank you so much!
Answer The thing about international adoption is that the rules change and often change quickly. Therefore anything you read now will be subject to revision when you're actually ready to proceed.
Having said that, here's a link to the best place you could possibly start - Families with Children from China, www.fwcc.org, is a great resource with dozen of links to specific info.
Take your time digesting the info and when you're ready, make sure you have the updated details you need.
