This makes me so happy

But this kid will have a home forever, and those other kids were being taken in and out at the wishes of the parents

Yes. There's a long process to go through to qualify to adopt a child. Ya gotta show the system that you are able to take care of the child, i.e. Steady amount of income, clean place to live, able to show you are able to handle an emergency, pass a background check & various other stuff. Now I'm not sayin that some of the adoption agencies are always ontop of the rules. I've had to take kids away from some monsterist people, who should never even get a chance to look at a child in a pic, let alone adopt one. Some social workers are shitty people or over worked or get conned & give kids to somebody that don't need to have a child. So the kids go to shitty places & then suffer more than if they were to stay in the system. I encourage people to adopt, if they are willing to put forth the time it may take to get/ raise a child that is not theirs. Cause it's not the child's fault they were born. So they shouldn't be the ones to suffer. Make them wrap it before they tap it!!

Child services and adoption agencies are just big business. I had several CPS-employed relatives, one man, the rest women; and they said the horrors of what happens to these kids in BOTH the hands of child services and foster care was enough to make them quit, and all but one of them suicidal. Besides this, CPS gets a $120,000 annual federal bounty per child they remove from a home. The local CPS offices near us now just had to discipline the manager of that facility because she gave HERSELF a $200,000 raise on top of her $110,000 salary. It's a goddam business that trumps up charges against families who are just going through a hard time, who need counseling, not prison. The few kids they do save from truly bad situations justify whatever else CPS does, and those few saved kids go on to something worse. If you live in big city USA, get a lawyer on retainer before you take that kid to the hospital.
