Because adopting any American child is usually a prohibitively expensive, multi-year, virulently intrusive, incredibly humiliating process primarily designed to keep kids from ever being adopted, and even if a COUPLE actually gets all the way through it, and is approved, there’s no guarantee the incubator won’t suddenly decide to take the kid back, as is her “right”.

And when you get into white families adopting minority children you come up against some stiff opposition from some mino
