My son and his wife want to adopt a Haitian orphan but their rules
disallow a family of more than 2 children to adopt from Haiti.

:(

So they are on a list for another country.

Obviously, the policy of arresting any and all Baptist aid workers should be implemented at once just in case they try to find loving homes for these abandoned kids.

As a father, I could not imagine abandoning my child, regardless of the circumstances.

Apparently these parents love they're children so much, they have no other choice. Sad!

after what the haitian govt did to the baptist group, anyone who tried to get these kids out of that hellhole is just asking for trouble. I am afraid they are doomed to remain “no-one’s kids” and unadoptable, perhaps forever

this goes on everyday in Russia and the poor countries of eastern europe, India, etc

It is interesting to observe how a nation such as Chile, stricken with far more devastation repetitively than Haiti, needs far less assistance and has far fewer reports of abandonment than Haiti.

We wish we were a little younger and a little richer, we would love to add more children to the nest...

From the title I thought Haiti is using abandoned children as astronauts.

Maybe some warm hearted Muslims will be allowed to adopt them.

Haiti needs to break with its past. Start allowing foreign investment and start implementing free market reforms and give the people guaranteed rights and freedom. Believe it or not this country was once the most prosperous in the Hemisphere until they decided they didn’t need the white man and the French basically told them to go pound sand and figure it out yourselves.
