Can single men adopt children and at what age can they and how old does the child have to be?

there is no actual legal restriction to stop a single male adopting, although they will make it hard for you. there are minimum age restrictions, i don't know what it is in your area, but there usually has to be at least 18 years between you and the child. you must be over 18 to adopt, some place say 21, some countries are 25. if you are in the miliaty thenthey will not let you adopt because your residence is unstable and the chances of you dying and leaving the baby are so high. some countries do not allow single peope to adopt, your best bet is to talk to a n adoption agency about this.

no they dont have to be the same race it's your choice, you have to be at less 18 years of age, it doesnt matter how older you are to the adopted children, yes you can still adopt a child if your in the military, all you have to do to adopt a child is you must be 18 years old and prove that you can provide for them.

I am quite sure you would be able to adopt out of the foster care system. You would just need to check with DFS in your state and take the appropriate courses and training. Good luck! ETA You will probably be out of luck in terms of international adoption, though. I can't think of any countries who currently allow single men to adopt, there are very few who allow single women to adopt at this point. But you could certainly inquire, because there may be options. I hope it works out for you!

What do you mean do they have to be the same race? What kind of question is that?
