I'm sure these couples are desperate for a child. The problem is that they are thinking more about themselves than the welfare of this child that they say they want to parent. I am an adoptive mother. Yes, I wanted to be a mother more than anything. At no time, however, was I willing to put my own needs over the needs of the child. I guard my children's history fiercely...it is their story and I keep it PRIVATE. I would never go on television and turn the beginning of this child's life--a painful beginning--into a circus just because I wanted a child.
I agree with you that this is disgusting. I'm not willing to give these adoptive parents a pass, though.
