They caught the Dollars in Utah!

I'm completely horrified what these people did to their children! Thank God they were caught!!!!

Exclamation I agree!

When I read the article I was shocked and puzzled. How can the FL adoption agency justify the Dollars adopting not 1 but 7 children? Didn't anyone notice 14-year-old twins, one weighing 36 pounds, the other 38 pounds, about 80 pounds below the normal weights for their age?
When I hear that Gay couples are not the kind of families to raise children, but, the Dollars are, I question just who is in charge.
This just goes to prove that a person's sexual orientation should not be the factor in choosing adoptive parents.
Who am I? A gay adoptive parent. No it wasn't done through an adoption agency. I guess you would call us foster parents. My roommates and I raised my nephew from the age of 13 to 18. His parents split up, the mother worked nights and the dad was a drunk. Our son, was heading down the path to failure. He was on the D honor roll. He was honored to get a D! He graduated with Honors and was in America's Who's Who in High School.
He is now married with 5 children.

ok forgive me for what Im going say but thoughts have been running through my head since Ive read this...I'm adopted & I'm a birth mother..I've always thought abortion should be a choice just one I'd never make~but I would rather be dead then tortured and what about my child that I love so much & wanted to give him a better life? I read many backgrounds on possible adoption families~I just might have choose these lying monsters...
I know that there are many many loving people that cant have children & would treat an adopted child as there own but how on earth is someone to know sorry Im having a rough time with this.
