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.

Amen to that. I wonder how many people on this thread demanding that we should have adopted from the U.S. have done so. I will never apologize for adopting my kids from overseas. They are a gift from God, no matter where they were born.

Thank God she didn't wake her little brother in the next room.

Oh I almost forgot, she's Chinese.

Possibly the laws differ by state or they have changed in the past year. We have known people who adopted children in this country. Other than having to wait for a while, they had no complaints about the system. And no, they didn't have to make big payments either. Since I haven't tried to adopt children you can call me ignorant -- name calling doesn't bother me.
