Re: [OASIS-Adopt] International vs. Domestic

Do any of you have any pros/cons for either?

Thank you for your help!!

We are going International. We wanted to do domestic but met too many people who lost a lot of money that way when birth moms changed their minds. International is expensive but once you leave that country with your baby you don't have to worry about anyone changing their mind. Both have good and bad points and it is a very personal decision as to which way to go. My best suggestion is do a lot of research and pick an agency or attorney VERY carefully
