I know noone can tell me, but we're starting the process and I'd like to know if there is anything that counts us out before I get our hopes up.
DH and I have 2 children. We have DS age 4 who is donor conceived. We did this because DH has a hereditary health issue not because of conception issues. Our other child is my DH's nephew. He is now 15 and was orphaned at the age of 1 (both parents), brought up by MIL and then passed to us when he was 12 because he wasn't going to school/behaviour issues. This has been hard but has worked really well and he is now happy, good friends and doing well academically.
We live in a largish house and are financially very secure. However, DH's work would be described as a professional gambler which I know is probably not their favourite.
We would like to adopt from abroad. Any age. Any variety.
Can anyone give me their opinion?
