and some people will say that you should be ashamed of your un_American ideals since there are sooo many AA children waiting for adoption, why go out of country to get a African child...

What I am meaning to say is I have ran across some many people with so many different feelings reguarding adoption. They one that still gets me is people who think the kids aren't your "real" kids or ask something like could they adopt your child (since you're a single parent and they'd be a 2 parent family) i've only had that one one time...and then the people who think 2 same sexed parents are better then your single parent home (I am not saying gay/lesbain parents are bad, I just think single parents can be just as good as any other kind of family and are often better for RAD kids who pit parent against parent)

However, the Ethiopian Adoption in my view is wonderful because those kids really need homes and it looks like the people working there really want to find them homes. Unlike many American Foster home agencies..

I think many people have no idea what it is really like for the kids to grow up in foster care, never to have anyone really care for them.
