We did adopt and we are looking at 3 more. It is expensive, but kids in foster care need forever families, so we adopt from the USA...

One of our adopted kids is legally blind...(he can see, but he will never be able to drive), but you tell him he can't do something, he will try.

Kids from shithole countries need forever families too
As flawed as foster care is, it beats being raised in a room full of babies in cribs fed on sugar water when the food supply ran out in winter- like our Russian son experienced
Adopted at age 5 weighing 25 pounds and wearing a size 2T
Brought him home and realized the night we arrived why he was so excited by the sky— He had never been outside at night and never saw stars before - at age 5
FAS btw but doing quite well, just about to graduate from high school ( online, home schooled)
Spare me the “ America first” argument when it comes to orphans
