Default Foreign Adoptions

Anyone here adopted from outside of the U.S.?

Certainly not a pressing issue since we've just recently added our first, but in our future plans we've been thinking of adding an adopted child (as our last - Chas wants a 1 or 2 more of our own) to our family, but I realize the process can be extended (years).

Some Asian countries are eliminating adoption to the U.S. - (Vietnam ban the process due to child slave and labor issues being exploited) so that is a concern as well.

Just looking to gain insight from experienced families (if any)...
