two works....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.

I think that watching a young toddler, being ripped from the only home and parents that he had ever known; because some guy had knocked up some girl, she didn't tell him she was pregnant; or, that she had given the child up for adoption -- and, he decides he wants the child back and the court agrees.

This type of event was happening for a while back in the 80's or 90's, I think. I can't help but believe that it was a spur to foreign adoptions, where the birth family is completely out of the picture.
