[quote=Anonymous]Good article, I hope people take the time to read it. I think it is ALWAYS wise to ask who is profiting from an transaction and what their motivations are. While I believe the majority of the people who work at adoption agencies and in the adoption industry (it is an industry) are amazing, kind-hearted people with the best interests at heart, the reality is that there is profit involved and over time, the grind of the business can wear down even the most idealistic people. Adoption is a beautiful thing. And, adoption is also at high-risk of corruption because it is so emotional on both sides. I think we'll see some of these issues get worse for a variety of reasons: as less babies become available for adoption as choosing to parent is a more common option today; many people are delaying parenthood and may not be able to conceive even with help; people's access to social media to tell their story becomes easier; international adoption options ebb and flow.
