There are folks in their 50s and 60’s adopting, some of us go international. If willing to adopt a child age 10 and above and you are healthy and can provide financially and set up guardian security, you can find a way to adopt

> some of us go international.

We adopted a sibling group internationally. Two are special needs, one is borderline. Oldest was 11 when the adoption was made final. It was a very lengthy and costly process, but it was well worth it. They are beautiful, and we THANK GOD for them.
