We started with our County and went through all of the classes and completed our homestudy. We waited and and waited for over a year. Then we went to our adoption attorney/agency to try and adopt in an open adoption. We have been waiting 8 months. You would think that an Hispanic/caucasion couple would be match right away, but, this did not happen.
we were matched with one birth mother who pick us and we loved her. But we could not afford 100% of her living expenses without going into debt our selves. We made offer after offer through our attorney/agency and she would not budge off of her number, so we had to say, "sorry". We felt heart broken. Our attorney/agency matched her right away with another couple who could meet all of her needs. My husband and I feel crushed and we know for sure that we are on the bottom of the list for any type of matching. We have not even heard from our attorney/agency other than an email to let us know that they rematched the birth mother and she is very happy. What about us?
We feel like Mr. and Mrs. Cheap, and awful that we could not make getting the child that we have been waiting for for 2 years happen. Now, we are back to waiting, waiting, waiting.
We thought maybe we could assist with being matched again, but making our own web sit, or something. I believe though that this is soliciation and may not be something we are suppose to do. Any suggestions?
