I hate that I don't respect adoptive parents anymore, but I don't.[/quote]

Wow.

Glad my adopted child and I are the same race so that we don’t stand out to you as an adoptive family. You have NO idea why they were available for adoption. None. Feel free to take it up with their extended birth family on both sides who chose to not adopt.

I’m also an adoptee so feel free to disrespect that as well. [/quote]

Adoption is often a permanent solution to a temporary problem. An expectant mother may be very excited to be a mother, but only lack financial resources. Somehow, the only way for her to get the basic level of care an expectant mother really needs is for her to agree to put her future child up for adoption. The resources that an expectant mother temporarily gains access to from a prospective adoptive couple are NOT resources that someone should have to put their child up for adoption to get.

The expectant mother is often lied to by adoptive couples and adoption agencies about her rights, and adoptive couples are allowed to cut off contact with her after agreeing to openness in the adoption.

Truly disgusting that a woman should have to sell her child.[/quote]

This isn't true as low income mom's can get all kinds of benefits.  It's not often a temporary problem.  And, not all adoption are via agencies.[/quote]

What country and year do you live in?  Not the US in 2023.  Low income women do not automatically get housing, food, and and health care when they become pregnant.  They don't get child care for existing children when they become pregnant.  Direct support in the form of WIC is paltry.  No one pays for birth, prenatal care, or medical care for the child.  A mother doesn't even get paid maternity leave.[/quote]

Benefits haven't changed.  Medicaid pays of low income births.[/quote]
