Don't forget, they are being strict for the high profile cases, so nothing can have logos or words on it. Well, unless you sit on the prosecution side. :-)<br /><br />UGA MomAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-286599265273958850.post-59204657988940181802010-08-30T09:28:22.495-04:002010-08-30T09:28:22.495-04:00Bill, thank you for sharing this story. It is so s...Bill, thank you for sharing this story. It is so sad & scary to know that this child could end up in a loving home, but it is not worth the risk. There are commercials & advertisements online & radio asking people to adopt older children, but yet they literally make it impossible to do so. It is virtually impossible to adopt American babies also. I have so many friends who have done the same as you & gone overseas to adopt, not once, not twice, but most are on their 3rd or 4th adoptions. You know how much it costs, but in the long run, is so worth it. <br /><br />Due to medical reasons, my husband & I have not been able to have anymore children, but have considered adoption. We too would be willing to take in an older child, but have been warned of the risks. We would like to adopt a boy, but our biggest problem with that is we have a teenage daughter & a lot of the kids from messed up family lives also pose a risk for something happening there. <br /><br />I was at a friend's yard sale a couple of weeks ago helping out. This lady came in (late 40's) and was talking about a woman she encountered at church the week before. She was caring for her 5 month old grandson (both parents on meth), but couldn't afford to care for him financially or for health reasons. She was putting the child into foster care. She literally asked the woman if she was interested in adopting the child, that she had all parental rights & would make it very easy for her. The woman was very eager to do it, but her husband reminded her that they had grandchildren & it would be very hard for them & their age. My friend said, "well, she (referring to me) would love to take that child". The woman said, "honestly, the child could pass for yours, same hair color, eye color...would be perfect". So I got the number & after discussing with my husband, I called the lady. It was too late. The child had already been put into foster care. Don't get me wrong, I know wonderful people who do foster care, but I also know people who only do it for the money. I was and still am just sick over it. The woman is trying to see what she can do to get the little boy back so we can get him, but now that he's "in the system", I doubt that will happen. I will keep on praying & ask for others to pray. From what I understand, the baby does not have any problems due to the parents' drug abuse & he is just a smiling, happy baby. <br /><br />Sorry so long, but if not prayers for us to get this child, but for him to end up in a love-filled home & cared for to the fullest.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-286599265273958850.post-83397169316822575832010-08-29T21:58:45.714-04:002010-08-29T21:58:45.714-04:00You are not being paranoid.

He's black and his adopted parents were white. As it happens, when I moved to Utah, I ended up attending the same church as the man's parents. Super-duper wonderful folks. The father was one of those kind of guys who went above and beyond, when asked, when not asked, to help other people, especially when it came to kids. He passed away recently. Some of you may recall my comments on this before, but for those who weren't here then, I'll restate them.<br /><br />During the memorial service for Paul, which happened right around the same time as the Tonya Craft trial, as they were talking about how much he did for kids, and how much he loved kids, I thought, "With all the charges of child molestation flying around these days, how many men, even women, like Paul who have the same spirit as Paul will never act like Paul because they are afraid of being labled or accused as a child molester?"<br /><br />You know, there was a study done in England the results of which were released about a month ago which said that more than 2/3 of men and about 2/5 of women would NOT come to the aid of a child they saw in distress for fear of being accused of trying to abduct or molest the child. How genuinely sad is it that there are children who ARE suffering and who WILL suffer because the state, not just in America, but in all of western society, has gone so overboard in prosecuting anyone and everyone who so much as looks at a child?<br /><br />As for the state of affairs with adoptions, I have a cousin in Georgia who has foster parented for most of her married life. She recently received two girls about 5 and 6 years old. The state lied to them about all sorts of things, and withheld information, VITAL information about medications. There was one medication that my cousin was never told about by the agency, and the other week when she was with the girl at the hospital for an MRI (the poor girl has cancer, at 6, she has brain cancer!--bless her), and while there the doctor asked about a medication that was in her medical file, and my cousin never knew she was supposed to take it. You would think that if she's taking meds, not only would they tell the foster parents about them, they'd provide a list. Nope! Not Georgia! And, this medicine was something that had the girl gone another weak without, she could have died. And, you know how Georgia now operates, if a child dies, the parents are AUTOMATICALLY investigated. You could bet your bottom dollar that the agency would like and say they informed my cousin, and she'd go to jail for child abuse or worse. So, and I hate to say this, if my cousin's foster daughter didn't have cancer, and if that doctor hadn't just casually mention that medicine in her file, my cousin, for all the good she has done, would probably be in jail right now. Seriously folks, government agencies have lost it. We don't need another revolution. What we need is FULL accountability from those in government.Lamenoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-286599265273958850.post-32957556592441524542010-08-25T21:07:07.543-04:002010-08-25T21:07:07.543-04:00correction ---- *will hopefully be thrown out.correction ---- *will hopefully be thrown out.KLJnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-286599265273958850.post-87021514567836033002010-08-25T21:06:14.264-04:002010-08-25T21:06:14.264-04:00Hi Bill,

...Bill is certainly a man hoping to help the world!<br /><br />If only there was more than one of him, or he the nation he lives in didn’t ignore the policing of innocent victims.<br /><br />The adoptions today are growing into a federal funding source for those who take the children from their biological parents and all involved until they are adopted. Then many of the new parents receive monthly checks also.<br /><br />It’s wrong to paint all who adopt with the same brush, as there are many out there sincerely working to provide the children a happy family to grow up with. <br /><br />Unfortunately, there are quite a few now who are there to collect the checks.<br /><br />It’s sad for many involved, more so for the children. No matter what the circumstances are, I find it difficult to ever assign any blame on the children for the hand they have been dealt in life.kbphttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11814695387546108048noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-286599265273958850.post-76256455014894297252010-08-25T20:13:04.879-04:002010-08-25T20:13:04.879-04:00I personally know of two different families who ad...I personally know of two different families who adopted multiple siblings where in one case the father was later accused of sexual abuse (supposedly once to twice a day with the oldest teen - we moved before it finally went to trial so don't know the end result but believe the charge to be totally fabricated) and the second where there were four siblings with a very troubled previous family life where the parents were accused of child abuse. In the latter case, on advice of counsel, rather than fight the charges and accompanying expense the parents (in Georgia) pled(sp?) guilty being told they would probably get probation and instead were each sentenced to 10 years. They are 3 years later still serving their sentences.

Even worse, those that control the system will put on their holier-than-thou faces and say it's for the best, that the government can raise a child much better than experienced parents. Of course, once that child has passed the 'cute' stage and is only a drain on the system, these children soon discover their caretakers await birthday 18 with great glee. Why? That's when the checks stop and the kid is on their own. Yup. Finished school or not, in most cases not, those kids are dumped on society. I feel for any man this angry young woman will come into contact with as she grows older without assistance to help her overcome her issues.
