Adopting children from other countries?

New postby TalkingPoint » Mon Jun 08, 2009 3:07 am

Should orphaned children be adopted by people of the same ethnic origins?

What do YOU think?

Hi,I want to express my opinion shortly.
For some nations is easier and faster to adopt a child from another country,because in particular countries the children without parents are numerous.It would be more natural to adopt a child from your culture and country,it is also the feeling that you benefit your country by hepling a child whose parents are or were citizens of that country.But what is natural these days,we have to adapt to the world the way it is today.And if a child on the other side of the world need parents and You or a young family need a child but can not have or just want to expand the family-why not,not one but the two sides are satisfied.Yes,it is going to have an ethnic difference,but thats why life is good,because it is colorful and diverse.Ethnic groups are already mixed all over the world.
some would say that the child might have difficulties growing up in different ethnic group.No one can predict if the child is better without parents at all or with foreign parents,so everyone should consider doing that as of action of love and fullfillment.Everyone can help those children to feel wanted and make life easier for them-tolerance and acceptance!
Thank you!
