[QUOTE="1 Day At a Time, post: 83158, member: 3704"] Back in the day, in my previous social worker incarnation, I did adoption home studies for independent adoptions in our city. I was most interested in seeing parents with some experience and a kid friendly home. What's kid friendly? A fun, safe environment, preferably with some pets. I always felt like the best homes had an aquarium, some birds, cats, and dogs. Those were my favorites. I knew that the new little person would fit right in! Homes that were too perfect, too clean, with perfect seeming parents - those were the places that scared me too death... especially the ones where children had never lived before. Just be yourself- it'll go very well! [/QUOTE]
