If the child[ren]'s religion is different than yours, will they be allowed to continue to practice this? since we are asking for a small child, it probably shouldn't be a problem. When they are older we will teach them about the place they came from and the religion would be included in that.
Other preferences: none
Other: We would prefer a healthy child/children because of our lifestyle, but mild health problems (such as asthma,etc.) are not a problem.
