These women were definitely nuts, but the reason they were able to adopt these kids is that nobody else wanted them, so therefore the agencies didn’t take a close hard look. And, btw, it’s not only gays but other nutty people who adopt hard-to-adopt kids.
Black children are hard to adopt because your usual white adoptive parents have been scared off because of “cultural appropriation” and black parents either have their own children or - as a black friend of mine boasted to me - “don’t want them.”
So therefor you’re left with weirdos who couldn’t adopt anybody else. And these kids are at their mercy.
Very sober analysis.
It’s very sad.
