[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]America right now actually has an abundance of babies and children that need to be adopted because of the heroin crisis and growing poverty. And YES- some of these babies are COMPLETELY healthy. Domestic > international. [/quote] Physically healthy does not mean mentally healthy. Learn about attachment disorders and other issues associated with removing children from homes due to drugs or neglect. Pretending trauma from these events do not impact children long term does not help the parents entering into adoption and it definitely does not help the children. Spend a day on a message board about RAD or ODD and make decisions accordingly.[/quote] This is so true. Now that my kids and the kids of families I met through adoption are older, we are seeing firsthand the affect that early abandonment has had and continues to have on our kids. [/quote]
