    If you want/are willing to adopt a child with some special needs (ADHD, some trauma, autistic, etc) you could probably have someone call you within a few weeks of getting paperwork in. I have a family that is very picky about what they want to adopt on my caseload- a blonde haired blue eyed little girl who just happens to be a libra (in a nuts ...) with no special needs. Needless to say they've been waiting to hear back from us longer than a family who wants a baby.

    I know that the process has been long and tedious for LJ and Kori. I'm so happy for them. It's such an exciting time for them.



    And probably some of ours thrown in there. Not that I'm bitter or anything.

    Just as an aside, how messed up is it that there are kids that need love and a home, but you need a license and any random person can just make babies. Does that make sense?
    you need to be licensed so they can be at least fairly sure they're not adopting out to pedophiles or weirdos. i think there should be more involved when adopting, especially with these private adoption agencies. they made a good call with the ellis' though, obivously.

    how come the only time you have positive things to say on these type of threads is when it involves one of your crew or the ellis'? anyone else made this thread and you'd be a total . what a pathetic suckup, you are son.

    I think it is ridiculous. Like I said, anyone can just have a baby on their own anyways. There are no licenses needed just to be a parent. There are tons of terrible parents that are just allowed to have kids. Drug addicts, rapists, pedos, abusive....


    Why make it difficult to adopt? Why require a license? If it does not require a license to have a baby on your own, and there are pedophiles and terrible parents who have their own children, why should adopting be any different? Can you prove you would be getting a significantly worse amount of parents than already exists?

    Is keeping them in foster care forever a better option? Is there not problems there too? Sure every once and a while you may get someone with bad intentions, but with the work they make you go through, I highly doubt the number is enough to justify the work. Keeping kids from pedophiles is probably the last reason they care about. It is not even about that.

    Could you just not run a simple back ground check for anyone that has been arrested on pedo charges or other criminal acts? That takes days, not months and you can get a good picture of the people's back grounds.

    you should just offer some sort of disclaimer since you're still new at what you are doing. honestly, i wouldnt take any advice you offer on the subject seriously at this point.

    If you are working with a private adoption agency, I'm not sure that the process is as extensive. But.. when you are working to adopt children that are coming out of foster care, they certainly need to be more careful. The kids have already gone through something in their lives -- otherwise they wouldn't be in State care. So they need to do what they can to try to make sure that the "match" is as good as it can be for the sake of the kids. The process isn't that horrible. It takes 9 months to have a baby.. it only took us 6 months to get placed with a child.

    It is not about the length of time, imo. It is the licensing. Parents don't need licenses to have children on their own and there is a far greater number of bad parents with problems than bad people trying to adopt.

    It takes nine months to have a baby because of nature, not licensing for approval.

    Even adopting children out of foster care, babies won't remember what they went through.

    But like I said, it was just a side thought. Important thing is there is a happy home.

    Dude...there are sick people in this world. Just because people can have babies doesn't mean they deserve to be able too. There is a lot of abuse in the foster program and I can imagine that would only be worse with helpless infants.

    I understand that, but why then not require everyone to get a license to be a parent? How come it is acceptable for the tons of sick people in this world just to have babies on their own?

    So if their is a lot of abuse in the foster programs, why make it require a license to get them out?

    Just FYI... Most of the children in foster care aren't babies. I believe the average age in Texas is 9.

    Parents need to be prepped for handling children that might have been physically or sexually abused, drug exposed, have special needs, etc. That's part of what the process to get licensed is about. It's not just red tape for nothing.

    Because you would have to assume near total control over peoples lives in draconian fashion to accomplish it. You don't have to do that with adopted children.

    How come it is acceptable for the tons of sick people in this world just to have babies on their own?
    Just a sad facet of reality.
