Not OP but what the hell is wrong with you? Who died and put you in charge of "acceptable" reasons for gender preference? [/quote]
NP here. Adoption is supposed to be about finding families for children who need them, not filling orders to fulfill adoptive parent fantasies.[/quote]

Who are you to say what adoption "is supposed to be about"?[/quote]

Adoption is supposed to be about the child. Good lord, how can you not see that?!! Disgusting. [/quote]

Are you an adoptive parent, adopted child, or birth mother?[/quote]

I'm the child of an adopted child. My mother is an incredibly damaged individual and adoption played some (not all) role in that. Adoption IS supposed to be  be about finding homes for children not the other way around. And fwiw -  I have experienced infertility myself and I also worked in the child welfare system for several years. I am familiar with several different aspects of adoption as well as the personal longing for a child but adoption still should be about the needs of the child.[/quote]
