If you want to "give the less fortunate a better life," join the Peace Corps. Go to Ethiopia and help build schools, churches, homes...whatever they need. Don't take an Ethiopian child from his homeland and native language and relatives/friends just so YOU can feel better about yourself.
If you really want to adopt a child who needs a home, there are plenty of kids in foster care in your home country. Those kids are the ones whose parents' rights have been terminated for one reason or another and they won't have to learn a new language, move far from the only home they've ever known, and adapt to a new culture in order for YOU to become a parent. |
