Adoption is an option

I quite literally listed two reasons in my last post. Also I feel the need to inform you that using scare quotes is not an argument. And as much as I would like to change your opinion I know that isn't likely, "I'm" just listing out "my" "options" about "my" "experiences" and "my" "morals".

Good for you, I think that's fantastic that you have your own morals and yes, you will not change my opinion on this matter. Also, those two reasons aren't even realistic enough to be actual reasons honestly speaking... but, then again, those are your viewpoints so it must be "right" right?

@Reactionary I need my coffee lol So let me see if I understood what you just wrote. You're saying that orphan children will eventually run out or their numbers will be low in some cases/locations, therefore forcing people with no choice to adopt..to now adopt children from foreign countries..all because people who can have kids chose to adopt?

@shiroakai Those are realistic reasons. @shadower What I'm saying is that the system has become so bogged up with parents and not enough children that instead of waiting 5 years they are now going overseas. I grew up with a guy from South Korea that was a adopted by Americans because they couldn't adopt locally. One of my teachers adopted from China because they couldn't adopt locally. I know a couple that adopted 3 children from Africa because they couldn't adopt locally. And I can think of 5 more cases off the top of my head that I know personally like this.

@Reactionary I see..well that's interesting. The couple's that I've met who have adopted children from overseas(two couples) did so because they chose to, not because the system was bogged. Though I don't doubt that those things actually occur. It shouldn't really matter where you adopt from, as long as they are given good homes. Also someone choosing to adopt when they're fertile could be for any number of reasons. Some may not enjoy any kind of sexual activity with the opposite sex or the same sex..rape, abuse, genetic problems or even an STD that they fear will be passed on to their children could be the reason. I personally wouldn't call that selfish, I haven't walked a mile in their shoes..same way I haven't walked in yours. Now I'm not saying that you're wrong for having your perspective/experiences. My reply was a little late, had to step out earlier.

Even though adoption is a great and viable option for many different scenarios I don't think anyone should condemn or berate people who choose not to adopt (if they can biologically produce children). I just think if that's the case for anyone you're blaming the wrong people for the problem.
