You know, people like to bash the adoption option, I think they assume it’s a dark broken down orphanage over crowded with sick children who wish they were never born. As someone whose home was a foster home to over 300 plus children over the course of 20 years, and having three adopted sisters, I can tell you that if you find yourself with child and you don’t think you can provide the child the life you think he/she deserves, it’s okay to ask for help, to let them help you help your child.

The reality is that the pro-choice movement is only focused on ONE choice — abortion. Period.
Every time I bring up adoption, I receive anonymous hate about how horrible it is and how much better it is to just kill the child off. And if I point out that there is life after childhood, then I’m told that the child will be so scarred from the constant sexual, emotional, and physical abuse they endured at the hands of people like you that they will just commit suicide, become a hardened criminal, or simply go homeless.
They actually demonize adoption more than they demonize me, and that’s saying a lot.
