Why can't I adopt children?
I have a child´s chest, a child´s bed, and light. I tried to adopt children from the orphanage but it doesn't work.
Adoption have requirements :
- Having a house with a child bedroom or a second room in a self-built house.
- Finishing the Innocence Lost quest
As you said, you have the bedroom.
Have you finished the Innocence Lost quest ?
Since you've completed the house requirements, here are the other thing you need to do:
- You need to complete Innocence Lost by going into the Arentino Residence and talk to Aventus. After it's complete, later go back and talk to the lady Constance. I know you're trying to adopt from the orphanage.
If you still can't adopt from the orphanage, you can adopt the other following children: Lucia from Whiterun, Blaise from Solitude, Sophie from Windhelm, and Alesan from Dawnstar.
If nothing works, download the Hearthfire Unoffical Path which fixes some things in the game depending on the DLC pack.
