Adoptions worldwide

I often refer to the magazine I have a subscription to called "Adoptive families".

Today I am quoting them on Dr Selman's research on Adoptions Worldwide.

"

• of the 45'000 children adotped internationally in 2004, about 50 percent were adopted by Americans; 43 percent found homes in Europe.
• in 2004, most kids adopted from Guatemala, Kazakhstan, and Korea were placed in the U.S., while most from Ethiopia, Ukraine, and Colombia went to Europe.
• The countries witht he highest adoption rates were Norway, Spain, Sweden, the Netherlands, the U.S., and the United Kingdom.
