Adoption Disgrace

A long term hobby horse of mine dissected by Harry Phibbs .For how long will we sacrifice children for the sake of idiot progressive nostrums . Its a Kafka-esque world of mute accusation and pitiless bureaucracy

........... applicants need to agree - or at least to pretend to agree - to an entire lexicon voiced by the social workers. All the pieties must be observed. Would they be pleased if the child they adopted grows up to be gay? Would they discourage "gender specific" activity - girls playing with dolls, boys playing with toy soldiers? Would they ever smack a child? If your reply is: "I always say, spare the rod, spoil the child," then go to the back of the queue.
Do the applicants "recognise" the benefits of counselling? Often people trying to adopt have experienced a miscarriage. If their response is that they prefer to come to terms with their own grief privately rather than with the benefit of strangers, should this view not be accepted? Apparently not. It doesn't tick the box.....

Totally with you on this one.

What so annoyed me about the case where the grandparents were not allowed to adopt their grandchildren was not that the children were destined to go to a homosexual male couple but that the grandparents were considered too old. She was 46. People do have children at that age you know. My aunt had twins. But the establishment has decided that hey, nature/God/biology is wrong. At 46 you are too old to care for children.

And do make sure that Child Seekers have plenty of brown coloured dollies to hand to encourage positive ethnically diverse play attitudes.

In my case 'Its either', I look at my own variously pigmented brood and wonder if I would be allowed to adopt them .
