Where is the Support now?

Where is the love? In all fairness and honesty I remind all readers I am just an observer to the adoption world. My blog entries are an observation of what I am reading on blogger. The good and the bad experiences. I do support adoption if the parents adopting pay a majority of the costs themselves and not expect most of the adoption to be paid by donations or fundraisers. If you go into an adoption ill-prepared the child you're trying to help suffers. The reality of some special needs kids in some EE countries is grim. If you formally commit to a child and don't have the money to complete the adoption, you have stolen precious time from the child. What if another family comes along and is interested in that child and do have the funds to adopt? What about kids who have met their forever family but yet the kids sit waiting 2 months after adoption?

Orphan no more but yet they wait. They know they have a family but their situation has not changed. Looked at their sponsor page on the website notorious for photolisting children and on the families blogger page. I feel for the kids that their new family did not prepare. The amount needed is close to 10k still, 2 months after the kids became theirs.

Orphan no more yes, but still existing in a world the parents swore to rescue them from.
