It's sad how some people are so desperate to get pregnant when there are so many kids all over the world that need homes.

How is it particularly sad? I don't really see the problem. Children are children regardless of where they're from. Adopting, loving, and providing for a kid from any part of the world is not any less noble or wonderful than adopting a kid from America/your home country. Making the distinction is kind of idiotic.

(Kaye) Because shoving a child into a culture that is completely different then their own isn't very noble, it's called culture shock.

I've heard that it's way easier to adopt a child from out of the country than in our country but I'm not so sure why. Also I've heard adoption in the states takes a LONG time so many become foster parents. For example a family friend was going to adopt a little boy from the states and just as the adoption process was almost complete, they took the child from her because "the mother wanted him back" and the mother was a stripper with eight other children.
