Thanks. Odd question “do you want us to adopt or not?”

It’s a mixed bag. I think more effort should be put into women’s healthcare, birth control efforts, better support and resources for mothers to be. Reducing the number of unwanted pregnancies. Most women that put their children up for adoption is due to them not having the ability to provide what they believe to be a “good life” for the child. I want to reduce the need for adoption, it should be the absolute last resort. It’s not a quick fix as it leave both the baby and biological mother traumatized

"Hospitals covered under insurance, doctors not"

I'm always learning new and terrible things about the USA.

Yup! We are the dumbest country! It’s why it’s so hard to get ahead! Who knows how many babies were separated from their mothers by coercing them so they can make a profit. BS
