[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Adoption is for children who need homes. Not for adults who want a child. Full stop. [/quote]

Sure, keep telling yourself that.[/quote]

I guess I should have said adoption SHOULD be. It currently isn’t. It’s a billion dollar industry that commodified children and exploits poor women. [/quote]

It exploits both birth families and adoptive families.  There should be far more rules and regulations at the federal level so each state handles things the same way and there should be caps on what agencies and attorneys charge and facilitators should be banned.  Or, they should do all adoptions through the state (even if its a private direct placement) and have far more oversight.  Its all about supply and demand.   Things got much worse when they introduced the  adoption tax credit and adoption "professionals" really raised prices as they tell families you will get it back in a  credit (but they don't tell you you have to adopt, pay the  money first, etc).[/quote]
