Do you know that it is very hard to place African American or multi racial babies in good homes the U.S.? Do you know that if your are over the age of 37, most private agencies will not consider you for their caucasian newborn program? Over 40? Forget it...but they will allow you to fill out an application for their Beginnings programs that offer African American/Bi racial babies because they are considered difficult to place.

Adoption placement fees for caucasian babies is around $20-25k, while a AA/MR baby is around $10k. I applaud them for making a choice of adopting domestic and giving a mixed race baby a wonderful home. I wish more people would.
