    Well I know I want to adopt a child from Eastern Europe.
    There's a lot of orphan's out there, what's so wrong about giving them a chance at a better life?

    I've thought about adopting from Eastern Europe as well, probably Ukraine or Russia since there are so many children in need there.

    I think it really depends on if you feel you should tell the child if they are adopted or not... Ultimately it should be the childs choice, but it wouldn't be harmful to suggest learning about their culture
