The adoption process was full of fees and other assorted charges. When I picked her up from the orphanage it was understood that there would be a $3000 fee. They wanted crisp new $100 bills. The fee was to cover the costs the government had paid for her care to that time.
Yeah, right!
I don't know where the money when, but I don't think it went to the care of the girls.
If you choose to think of it as "buying" a little girl then mores the pity for you!
It is you who referred to the ‘price’ you paid not I 9only that which can be bought has a price). You created the impression that you bought the child, get over it yourself.
