Hi I am a 23 yr old Military Wife. My husband and I are trying to start a family. I just wanted to know if anyone knows of any age limits for adopting a child? If anyone can let me know it would be a great deal of help. Thanks and have a Blessed day.
Age requirements vary depending on the type of adoption you do. If you adopt from the foster care system, you need to be 21 or older. If you want to adopt internationally, the age requirements vary from country to country. With a private domestic adoption, private agencies may have their own age requirements, then aside from that, in most situations the birth mother selects the adoptive parents for the child, and so she may have her own personal preferences about the age of the adoptive parents. The adoption.com website has good general information, you might want to browse that site, too. Good luck!
