Re: confessions

[herpymcderp]

Waiting lists are only really a huge deal for people wanting to adopt infants. Which is a shame, because really it's older children who are in need of adoption more than babies (who everyone wants).

Re: confessions

Nah, for real, inland adoption is virtually non-existent here. Seriously, I feel like people from the USA (though I think you're Canadian, right?) are often completely oblivious about this. There's places in the world where people willing to adopt vastly outnumber the kids available, because some places are just more secular, and people either abort or keep the kid. It's not a "backup plan", it's an insane longshot.

I don't want to go into an argument, but the ease with which people say "just adopt" is baffling to me.

Re: confessions

[herpymcderp]

This just seems to not mathematically work out, since I know the numbers of kids in the USA who are in foster situations actually outnumbers the amount of parents looking to adopt.

But maybe it does vary by region?

As for us, we're considering adopting from overseas, so while there's a list it's certainly not as ridiculous as the parents looking for a Caucasian infant who is not disabled.

That's what I mean, though: not everywhere is like the USA.Not at all. Honestly I could link you to sources, but that would make it sort of obvious where I'm from.

Yes, adopting from abroad is an option, but it's vastly more expensive, and also more risky because there have been a few cases in the news of kids being "adopted" that were taken from their parents without consent. Some countries have in fact halted overseas adoption altogether.
