Can you adopt with criminal record?

Well, when we had our fingerprints done, we knew his felony would come up, so we had already told our homestudy SW. She was the one who told us that the reason behind the fingerprints was to make sure no crimes against children had been committed. The agency we liked said if it was only forgery that we could get around it. However, we ended up matching with the atty. When we first met bmom before being picked, we flat out told her and she didn't have a problem with it. Good luck! Blessings, Michelle
