Where is this road taking us??

Oh, man. I will definitely be praying for you.
Praying for you
The demands on adoptive parents is pretty insane, I'm pretty sure we'd never be able to take that route. And it's pretty crazy that you have to buy a bigger house and then they say you have too much debt.
Adopting from CPS is looking better right now, still... that's got it's own complicating issues.
Sending you prayers for a successful adoption & for any areas of stress/tension to fade away.

Many blessings to you & your family on this Thanksgiving holiday
As an IAP myself, I think your agency has dropped the ball here. If they knew going in that you didn't have a positive net worth, they should not have approved your application. I would be royally pissed off too if I were you and you may want to seek a little bit of legal advice about getting your $ back. My dh and I adopted from China twice and our agency was very upfront about needing not only a positive net worth, but a minimum positive net worth. I agree w/you about being very wary of the US foster care/CPS system. I was a social worker in my former life and have had many yrs. experience w/it and it was never pretty. PM me if you want any more info and in the meantime I will send up good vibes your way :)
We've got a great adoption agency, I would have thought that if this was a criteria that it would be out there right up front. And hubby says no point in making any calls to straignten this out till Monday. So I'm in a holding pattern. I don't like this much!
I agree w/you that the criteria should have been known to you upfront. I hope you and dh can figure this out, and that you get through the rest of the weekend ok. Good luck!
