It's disgusting. I don't know who's more condemnable, the woman who sold her baby or the two gays who bought one as a lifestyle accessory. If they feel such a need to nurture, why not adopt an unwanted child from China? That's not too hard to arrange.

Agree with you Byron. My sil and her partner have done this twice over with disadvantaged children. First they adopted a down's baby and saved her from abortion and then they got her older sister a couple years later when mom abandoned her. They offered to save another children from abortion by the same woman, but the woman had the abortion anyway. There are plenty of adoptions in this country still, but most people who want to adopt don't have connections in the community where the women who neglect their children or are desperate for a way out are at. Fortunately, my sil had this connection through her son-in-law and it was his sister who gave the children up for adoption.
I know of another child who a woman we know is giving up for adoption to my husband's infertile nephew and wife. She is about 6 months pregnant now and the nephew has been praying for a child for a long time!
