Top 10 Adoption Articles

Posted by Crystal Killion Jul 1, 2008

I love lists! I think lists are fun to read. I also like statistics. When I research, I like to know how many people are effected by what I'm researching, and who is effected by it. Seeing the numbers puts it in perspective for me.Since this is the first day of July, I though it would be interesting to see which articles were the most popular over the past three months. Some were surprising, some were not. So, ranked from the most popular on down, from April 1st through June 30th, 2008, are my ten most popular adoption articles:

1. China’s Adoption Criteria: An Overview of the Requirements for Adopting a Child from China

2. Helping Adopted Children Thrive: Tips for Transitioning Older Children into Their Adoptive Family

3. Adopting from Ethiopia: Information and Requirements for Adoptive Parents

4. Foster Child Adoption 101: The Basics of Adding to Your Family Through the Foster Care System
