What age is the best to adopt? adopting children that have mental health problems

That : That is very dependent upon the individual situation for that child. Any time that a family can give the patient a loving, stable home and the services they require will be beneficial for that child. That is wonderful that you are looking into providing that care.

Adoption: The earlier the better. Bonding occurs in the early months and years and you would like that to be w/you and not have the baby be removed from others to which he/she has bonded. Also, less institutionalization lowers the risk of problems. Please be prepared and get support if you choose to adopt a little one w/diagnosed MH issues. Peace and good health.
