I actually came across one article where the Mosers were quoted as saying that "even if the adoption was improper...they should still be allowed to keep the child".

Since at least the beginning of the BSE we have had no problem playing "musical families" with children. While there is sometimes acknowledgement that adopted kids are troubled it is still considered in their best interest to be moved to a more economically secure family even when they are only "paper" related. And first mothers, very little acknowledgement of their pain, only temporary praise for their selfless "decision".<br /><br />Until we change the consciousness in this country, Prof Bartholet and those of her ilk will be the driving force behind adoption in the U.S.Robinnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-574300303008890516.post-7507789528459261272010-12-23T11:27:30.152-05:002010-12-23T11:27:30.152-05:00These people are just like the Vaughns, Christ and...These people are just like the Vaughns, Christ and Jason.
