[QUOTE="St_Worm2, post: 77346822, member: 511"] Abandon? Hardly! Adoption is [B]NOT[/B] abandonment. Rather, adoption is the means by which a birth mom (and/or birth dad) sees to the future care of their child (when they realize that they are incapable of caring for their child themselves). Adoption is (typically) a birth mom taking responsibility for her child's welfare when she knows that she cannot. Again, this is NOT abandoning them!! Abandonment, on the other hand, is a very sinful kind of irresponsible behavior on the part of the birth mom, because she just puts her baby down somewhere and leaves, without seeing to either their present or future wellbeing (the worst cases of "abandonment" being newborns who are, for instance, dumped into trash bins to die, which is murder). I don't know if you know this or not, but our adoption agencies "qualify" couples and individuals to be adoptive parents. The only problem is this, there are more than 100 "qualified" couples and individuals out there for every newborn who is put up for adoption today. So, the good news is, there really are no "unwanted" babies as a result, because there is hardly a shortage of "qualified" loving/caring people, families and homes to take them in, raise them, and love them as their own. We just need more birth moms (who know that they cannot care for their newborns) to understand that, that adoption is their best option, because through adoption they can truly fulfill their God-given responsibility to their child, to see that they are safe and loved by a family who both wants them and has the means to care for and raise them.
