My personal cure for "Angry Adoption Days"

I know I'm not the only one who has "Angry Adoption Days." These are the days when all things adoption-related seem evil and tainted. The days where every post you read from someone elsewhere on the adoptive plane seems to trigger a knee-jerk anger response.

I have moments (totally anger based) where I want to scream "No more adoptions, ever!" Totally unrealistic, I know. Without some huge changes in the very fundamental behaviors and beliefs of every single human being on this planet, there are always going to be children who need parents willing to love them, nurture them and raise them.

I have them occassionally.

I recently found the cure. I take a wander over to the Special Needs Adoption forum here on adoption.com

I read the post from these amazing moms and dads who have brought so many children with special needs into their hearts and their homes. It is a great reminder of how good adoption can be, how well it can work.

So what do you do to cope with your "angry adoption days"?
