If it's fake or not, I agree with what the OP writes re: adoption. People imagine adoption as the adoptive parents anxiously waiting for their adoptive child to be born, happy to have been 'chosen' to adopt (since those people believe that for every unwanted baby to be born, there must be thousands upon thousands of parents wanting to adopt, and it's like a win in the lottery!), then happily accept and love it forever. That happens with a likelyhood of 0.01 percent. IF at all. And only if the adoption has already been done and has been approved of. Otherwise, giving a child up for adoption means days, weeks, months, and most likely years in foster care or homes. Right from birth the child becomes a warden of the state, and if it's lucky, it gets placed with a foster family. If not, it gets put into a home where there are a lot less caretakers for a lot more children than one would imagine, since funding costs too much. Leading to neglect, abuse, malnourishment. Of course not ALL state homes are like that. Like not ALL men, ya know. But enough to make you worry. And the country does nothing, because who cares for funding for unwanted children's care? No one, yup! Also, even IF a child gets adopted out, it heavily relies on skin color, if the baby is considered 'cute', health and even the part where the facility/foster home is to lower or highten the chances of adoption at all. No one wants ugly babies/children, no one wants children with health problems, no one wants the traumatized ones. That's just how it is. And no one goes into a bad part of town to adopt there. The implications~ Then, there is the monetary gain that can be had by fostering kids, and ... yes. No, lets not go there. But yeah, of course, adoption is ALWAYS an option. Not.
