The most important thing I learned:
Adoption is not as easy as getting "the baby," and alot of people do not think enough about its impact.

We have a 5 year old child together whom we love very much, however because of our illness and her behavioral problems we will be giving her up for adoption this March.
What's the best way to go about explaining to her why this is happening?
Are their any easy ways to explain these diseases to a child so they understand?
It's very stressful. Thanks for your help.

I was wondering if adoption cost a lot of money or do only the adoption parents pay. Is their a lot of work if they still keep their baby, or is it simple.

I was thinking about China. I know that a lot of people adopt children from there. I was just curious about what financial and political steps that I would have to go through to do something like this.
