MARY MOONEY, THE ADOPTION GUIDE

The comments by Albert S. Wei of London, England are right on the money. "US adoption practice must be brought into line with internationally accepted standards of practice."

I get tons of emails on a weekly basis to my website about unethical adoption professionals. I knew of this case before it hit the papers and I can tell you the adoption workers involved have ripped off more than these 2 couples. This is just one of many that could be news. I could give the news media enough adoption horror stories to keep them printing at least one story every day! Families losing their life savings, families adopting a child that is said to be ‘healthy' that ends up in a mental hospital. Families desperate to find other homes for children they cannot parent, families that travel thousands of miles to other countries to pick up a child only to arrive to find no child waiting for them. There is NO federal regulation for adoption in the US. There is no consumer protection.

People like this must be stopped. I don't blame the birth mother or the adoptive families. I blame the greedy adoption professionals that drive this business to the moneymaking business it has become. Adoption is a business!
