World Association for Children and Parents (WACAP) has created the brochure, �Can Singles Adopt?�

They invite any single person who has considered adoption to contact WACAP.

WACAP is one of the most respected and experienced nonprofit adoption agencies. WACAP has placed more than 8,000 children with loving parents across the country.

Single women can adopt from China, India, Russia and the USA. Single men can adopt from the USA.

So that single parents won�t feel alone during their adoption, WACAP offers special support throughout the process. Each of their adoption programs that accept single parents has a designated Single Parent Specialist. WACAP also offers special consultations with social workers, support groups and helpful staff.

I'm a single mother, I've adopted my son about 6 months ago. I adopted through Faithful Adoption- www.faithfuladoption.org . For me as a single parent it was so helpful to use Faithful Community on their website, which allows to communicate with parents adopting at the same time from the same region. I never felt alone. Wonderful experience overall!

Hello all. I am doing a research paper on single parents who adopt and I have to have a form of personal research (poll, interview, etc...) by Friday. I would really appreciate if someone could answer these questions for me .

1. Why did you decide to adopt?


2. Before you adopted, were you financially stable? Meaning, a career, a home, and plenty of extra money just in case.


3. How old were you when you adopted?


4. When you adopted, were you and your child instantly attached to one another? Or did it take a few months?


5. How old was the child?


6. How old is he/she now?


7. What is the mental state of your son/daughter? Happy? Sad? Normal child? (No offense
meant if your child is mentally disabled.)

8. What did your friends/parents think about you adopting a child while single?


9. What was the cost of the adoption? Meaning, how much did you pay before you were actually able to adopt your child.


10. Did you adopt a child from the U.S. or from another country? Which state/country?

If you have any further information you would like to add, feel free. I need all the help I can get.

Thanks to any and all who may answer these..

Beth
