For a child with no parents, a single mom is a huge improvement. If she had adopted a child who otherwise had a good chance of ending up in a two-parent home, I’d have a problem with it. But this is an orphan from Guatemala. Odds are overwhelming that, if Ingraham had not adopted her, she would grow up completely unloved and unwanted in a Third World cr@phole orphanage, if she managed to make it to adulthood at all.
Igraham has done a good thing here, and best of luck to her and her daughter.
Not to be an evil person but I have a question. Are there not enough American babies that need homes that you go outside your country and basically usurp immigration laws and bring in another immigrant? What does that say to the families that are sitting in the waiting line to get in. What does that say to American babies/children that grow up in an orphanage to be thinking adults and wonder why all these foreign babies are brought here instead of them being chosen? I understand that there is an enormous amount of paperwork but it seems in a simplistic way that you are basically being a coyote if you adopt outside our country.
Kudos to her for adopting a child but I am just questioning the logic behind the choice.
Kind if like why pro sports teams continue to go out of the country for talent when there are enough boys just as good or better here to play basketball and baseball why do we need to go to Japan, Dominican Republic, Balkans etc...
Amen, we should pray for many more to join her in this noble effort.
