I know too families who have traveled to Guatamala and Vietnam to adopt. I never asked why they choose international adoption over adopting in the US. There must be a reason for it because that seems to be the tend. But why? It seems that there are tons of children in the US that need loving homes so why do so many people adopt out of the country.

Our parenting styles are differnt..he is WAY to permissive and layed back about the things his children do ie listening to inappropriate music or being disrespectful. When it comes to my children (who are not perfect) he is quick to judge and point fingers. I am more strict and structured than he is and I’m trying to convince him to go to parenting classes….he is stand-offish about it. How do we handle this?
