Well actually my friend who already has a biological child is sudanese/egyptian and her husband is pakistani. They’re open to adopting from anywhere really including Africa and South Asia. I think their preference is that it be a muslim child. Alcoholism and drugs were just an example, malnutrition is probably equally as dangerous for a child. It’s hard to tell, I don’t know about alcoholism but I do know even in Pakistan, some of the people who worked in the homes of family members did do drugs. Either way I guess they didn’t really think of these risks when they first starting considering adoption and its just given them food for thought.

im not sure if adoption agencies disclose information like this or even know about it. im surprised to hear about women from those background being drug addicts. i know its common in men but never heard about women. maybe your friend can adopt a child 1-2 years old rather than newborn.
