Hi Kathy,
Im am a hopeful adoptive mom but i have been matched twice and both failed but i can gibe u suggestions on what they asked me. What religion we were? Was i (the mom) going to stay home? What did we believe in about punishment (spanking or time out) Were we going to tell the child they were adopted? Would we let them visist once a year? Would we send pictures often ( once a month for the 1st year and every other month after that) How open we wanted to be? Could they meet the rest of our family? We were matched out of state the second time and they requested that only my hubby and i come to the hopsital. Thats about it but we talked alot befor the intial meeting and they both decided to parent. I hope this helps. PM me if i can answer any other questions...

Ask them if they are open to visits. Ask how often they are willing to send pictures. Ask them who the child will be told you are ( other mommie, aunt, a nick name or what the baby will call you.) You need to feel comfortable with what they are going to tell the baby about you and how they will refer to you when the baby starts talking. What religion if thats important to you. If you have any questions feel free to email me at bctraveler2000@yahoo.com
