From personal experience I can tell you that adopting a child is incredibly rewarding, and can make a family feel complete, but more importantly it gives the child a sense of belonging, and with joining a foster family it can feel like work b/c you never know for how long your going to be staying with the family, but if they are a good family, it feels great to be part of a loving environment.

You can ask, but it won't happen. Adoption of non-family members doesn't happen in Australia, since there aren't any functioning orphanages anymore. The only adoption that happens is overseas adoption. Fostering is no avenue to adoption in Australia.

Adoption - 2002 Foster Care 1-21 was released on: USA: 21 December 2003
If you are up for adoption and is a teen the choice is yours. You will then remain in foster care.
If you are adopted the parents care for you just like any other family. There is no adoption check. No one is being paid in order to adopt someone. If you were in foster care and turn 18 you will get a check and be out on your own.
A foster family is the family of an adopted child.
There is no statistical information collected on the number of children becoming available for adoption in the US. The number would include those in private adoption, kinship placements, children moving from foster care to foster adoption, as well as readoptions resulting from disruption.
Keeping the child or foster care.
Foster care and adoption is not the same thing. Yes, you get to meet your adoptive parents before they adopt you. That is not always the case with foster care since if a child is abused for instance the foster families are ready to receive you in the middle of the night sometimes, when it's needed. Foster care is not meant to be permanent like adoption.
A child isn't a car if it was one of your natural children you could have it institutionalised so you can still do that any way.
In the US, foster parent and adoption assistance are administered by the States, so the rules and payment rates differ.
