“I’m uncomfortable with these adoptions from all over the world, when there are children in the US who need homes.
2 words- legal entanglements
That's what I meant by the instability of US adoptions. I'm expressing my feelings here. I'm glad those foreign children have homes. At the same time I'm super-uncomfortable that we embrace life but don't say anything about those children who need nurturing homes after birth.
Perhaps the answer is to go back to well-run orphanages. I'm not condemning those parents who had their individual reals for adopting children from overseas. One case I know is age of parents can be disqualifying.....what a shame.
Two more words - activist judges.
The last thing I wanted was for some activist judge to later decide that some grandmother/aunt/uncle/third cousin twice removed should have visitation rights to my child.
