Why is it important for adoption to be controlled?

adoptingmommy

It is something that must be controlled for the safety of the child. If you were faced with giving up a child wouldn't you want to know that that little baby will have the best life with a good family? You would want to know that he or she is being cared for well, that the baby has clothes and food on the table, living in a safe neighborhood.. you know? :)

Well ask yourself this - would you want to send a defenceless baby to a paedophile pretending to be a caring father/mother?

No?

There ya go.

So the person that takes your child isn't a creep or inresposible person.
would you want someone like michael jackson to adopt you 5 year old boy?
no.

my cousins adopted and she had to go through training which i find very agreeable even if it wasn't her first child.

and some countries don't want children to be adopted. it's illegal. so that's why madonna can't take the kid and she should know better.

Because it concerns the welfare of children and should be a social service, NOT a business. Children are NOT commodities.

To ensure that as much as possible is done to ensure the children are placed in safe, secure and stable homes. Yes, that does not always happen but it would happen much much more if it were not for the safeguards and controls.

Many years ago my maternal grandmother was adopted. She didn't find out until she was in her late 60s but what she did find out what that she was the illegitimate daughter of young daughter of a wealthy British Lord. The Lord would have been her grandfather. Anyway, when she was born she was given to (adopted by) the maid in the Lord's estate and essentially ended up working as a servant in her own home.

Of course, I can envision many more tragic goings on with pedophiles and chronic abusers but this is just one personal example of why things need to be controlled and regulated.

Why is it important to control traffic..i.e. traffic lights, signs, rules of the road, etc.???? O! I know we should just trust/depend on the good-will of people to do the right thing on the roads. Yes?

Adoption laws and ethics are bad enough with what's in place today...can you imagine if there was none at all?!

Because adoption agencies are so much in control now. If you are a father you have no rights to your child , you have to fight years or until you run out of money Right now we are waiting for the court of appeals to decide either the natural father that is not unfit gets his child or the couple who with the adoption agency hid the child for 16 months from the father and then in court tried to say it was in the best interest to leave the child with them. The jury felt sorry for this crying couple and over looked a single father. Now the way it stands if gone against the father in the appeal the adoption agencies in the state of Texas even CPS can use best interest because the child has been with either the foster parents, adopted parents, or even a family member for a period of time and please don't think that they won't go as far as hide the child. So in order for natural parents to have any rights to their children adoption has to br regulated and controlled

'Insert name here'

Because taking a child away from its family and putting it into a new one is a massive thing to a child. Also the childs best interest needs to be thought about, such as if the adoptive parents could be a potential risk to the child.

Corn is not dog food! No wheat!

If adoption wasn't controlled, people would buy and sell babies as if they were comic books.

Women would have baby after baby, and sell it to the highest bidder. Who needs to work when you're uterus pops out perfectly good babies that people will pay good money for?

Infants have no voice.
They're defenseless.
Forking them over to the highest bidder will put them into the hands of predators and abusers.

Do you want to be responsible for that?

Well adoptions are controlled because they just want to make sure that the child is safe and happy in that surrounding. Plus if the child has a problem and requires a lot of money or attention they want to make sure you can give them what they need, to help better there life.

Because adoption, for all intents and purposes, is trafficking of children. Should we not control who and what and where the world's children are going?
