I'd say get chinese, if available.  Little rascals are adorable (unless they get too fat then  :barf:).  Also, you can take trips back to show them the Great Wall and panda bears when they get older.

Oh, also, give them totally American names.  I love an obviously chinese guy named "Keith" or "Curtis"

Had an architect on a job.  He and his wife finally got a kid after being in the system for something like 7-9years.

Had a superintendent on a couple jobs who went all over the world(russia, china, costa rica, etc) for several years and said that most of those situations were all very corrupt money grabs.  Finally got a kid from Costa Rica.

research the crap out of it.  Like, if this thread dies after 8-9 replies, at least bump it once or twice.

You could probably just steal one of those kids.  How much did Madonna pay for her's?

Have an adopted nice. She is pretty gnarly. Sister got lucky, the birth mom selected them. Actually got to take her home from the hospital when she was born. Kinda like a Juno situation. Nice is afraid of my dog though. That is the end of my story.
When one person, for whatever reason, has a chance to lead an exceptional life, he has no right to keep it to himself.

Think of the type of people who put their kids up for adoption.

You should definitely watch Teen Mom - focus on Tyler and Catelynn.

Consider this: perhaps we are who we are raised to be not necessarily just who we are born to be.  If this is the case, you possibly will create the same kid, through parenting, regardless if the kid is born to you or adopted.

Well that's why I'm leaning towards a Kalahari bushman baby.  Besides the cuteness.
