Transracial Adoption is just another form of adoption where a child is of different race than the adoptive parents.  Being that United States of America is full of different races and ethnicities some families consider adopting children from all kinds of backgrounds. Different transracial adoptions include African American/ Biracial Adoption, Asian Adoption, Hispanic Adoption, and Native American Adoption.

Even though you choose to raise a child of different race it is your responsibility as a parent to teach the adopted child about their ethnicity. Keep in mind, to avoid any confusion answering questions for the child on their own ethnicity is key.
