I regret that my post may have seemed provocative. I certainly didn't mean to.

As for adoption, I'm interested to know how many adoptive parents really want any baby. From what I've read, many parents want babies who look like them, preferably blue-eyed and blonde. I could be wrong though. Also, there are many Asian children waiting for adoption, as well as older children. If these adoptive parents were really so eager to raise any child, they wouldn't have to wait so long.

Please don't think I'm attacking adoptive parents. They are admirable, no exception. It's just that why are there so many parents looking for children and so many children looking for parents at the same time?
