I've read many books of blacks who grew up in a white family, and the majority acknowledge that they had opportunities they may not have had with their birth families. The less successful families appeared to be those who didn't integrate more with African Americans.

Though there are more options than ever now to adopt a baby, there's a misconception that there are so many healthy children waiting to be adopted. Our adoption agency has more families waiting to adopt than there are babies to be adopted.

There are people less willing to adopt African-American babies, some people rather wait and get a Caucasian baby.
