Unfortunately many children in this country never get adopted. I suppose many find if more fashionable to adopt a foreign child.

Fashion has nothing to do with it. And you are right, there are many kids in this country who do not have homes. Rather than ignorantly claim it has to do with fashion, why not learn something about the laws, court system, and pro-abortion activists that create and perpetuate the problem. Hell, I would love to have a houseful of kids - and has been said eloquently elsewhere, if every Christian did their duty there would be no need for orphanages or foster homes.

BS. The fact the US adoption agencies make you jump through incredible hoops and then you always stand the chance of the mother or father wanting the kid back at some point is the reason why people go overseas to adopt.

Using your logic, I guess people should just say "let them rot, they ain't American babies!" to all the discarded Asian kids.

Unfortunately many of us are repeatedly turned down to adopt in this country, because, they told us, the children are too damaged. We had a four year old birthchild when we began seeking to adopt.

We would have been all too happy to adopt from the US. But it was Russia that let us adopt, three times, from them.
