Do non-familial adoptions actually happen in any sort of significant numbers in central american countries?

I'd actually like to know if blended families occur more often than "child recycling". (Blended Families == adoption, divorce and remarriage, godfathering/godmothering, other culturally normatized familial-like relationships that aren't necessarily accepted as a "nuclear family"...)

(Disclaimer: I have no real opinions on this, but I'd like to get the facts.)
