Hey Mayra,

I am going through the process right now. You are aware that there a few different types of adoption methods, right?

Also, using "homosexual adoption" looks kind of funny. You may want to go for "gay and lesbian adoption".

I can fill you in on my process and possibly hook you up with other couples who have children who got them through methods differnet than ours.

Thanks!

Victor

Default Same Sex Adoption Process

Hey Victor,

I too am currently conducting research for a paper that is focused on the adoption process that same sex couples go through. I would really appreciate any information you could email me if possible about this process.

Thank you much
Drew

In the UK for a same sex couple to adopt they have to be married and score higher on the 'tests' than heterosexual couple.

In the US, adoption is regulated by states. Are you focusing your research on particular locations, or comparisons?
