How come Asian people never/rarely adopt white kids, but whites adopt asians?
It's a matter of availability. I know of a lot of white people who have adopted female Asian children. Probably because they are far more available than white children. China is interesting in that they have a one child policy. Because of that policy many girl children are either aborted or given to orphanages. The asian children who have been adopted that I know about have all been female. My cousin's daughter adopted a girl from China and a boy from Guatemala for example. She would have adopted white children had she been able to do so. Many, many white couples look to other countries for children to adopt because so few white women give up their babies for adoption nowadays. Which I think is unfortunate because I bet they'd have better lives than what the single mothers can give them but that's beside the point. There are fewer white children available for adoption and those who are would go to white parents. Adoption agencies prefer to place children with their own kind. While there are many black children available for adoption there aren't nearly as many black married couples willing or able to adopt. I would imagine Asians who do adopt prefer to adopt their own just as we do. Nothing racial about it.
Why do White people like to adopt Black kids?
I worked in child welfare for several years. Most people choose to adopt a child of a different race because they want a family or they want to help a child who is available for adoption. It is truly sad to say but it is much easier to adopt a child that is non-white. White children, especially babies and toddlers that are available for adoption get snatched up quickly. At private adoption agencies there is likely a long waiting list for white children (and in some cases a price difference depending on the race of the child). Not saying it's easier to adopt a non-white child in the US, but there are more non-white children available for adoption in the system in some areas b/c of the preference for a lot of people to adopt white children. I know, it's disgusting but that's the way things are and I truly hope that it changes. To be sure, it is changing slowly but surely. Also adopting outside of the country can often be faster and easier (as far as red tape) for couples. BQ: Yes I have seen a black family adopt white children. I had a black foster family on my case load that adopted 2 white children (a sibling group) that they had taken care of for years. They adopted them both to keep the children from being separated. They were the only mother and father that the kids have know. The family was great and they adopted 1 other child prior to adopting the other two.
Why don't people adopt more often?
RED FRICKIN’ TAPEBasically, those who want to adopt just want to find a baby or child and call him/her their own! But instead they face legal documents and fees and every obstacle before that can happen.I myself am a young mother to a one year old (biological) son. I have always wanted both biological and adopted kids. Carrying a child is an amazing thing, but adopting is one of the single most meaningful ways you can change someone’s life. I would like to adopt needy children in the future as I believe in my heart that I would give them a happy, meaningful childhood and future. But on the other hand, it is a lot simpler to just conceive a child.I had an experience in India where I met an orphaned little girl being raised by her alcoholic grandparents. She was only about 18 months old and her mother committed suicide in the very house where she was still living. Apart from her being an especially beautiful child, I really longed to take her out of the desperate living situation she was in. But her grandparents would not comply and there were no social service organizations that could help, even though she was hospitalized for malnutrition and given alcohol by her grandparents. Short of kidnapping, there was nothing I could do even though I wanted to be the loving mother she never had.Even when kids are in situations of pitiful neglect, it can be very difficult to adopt them. Sometimes kids roam the streets, but without any birth certificate, so they can be cared for but not legally adopted. Those in developed countries who want to adopt have to dedicate much, much more time and money to the process than they would to a pregnancy.As for people’s compulsive us of in vetro, I do understand a woman’s desire to carry a child in her womb. There is nothing comparable to this experience. But in my personal opinion, if a woman has had one pregnancy, I do think it is better if she adopts others, if she wants more kids, rather than spending money on artificially creating a new baby . Because there are kids who need loving homes! Why should genetics make any difference in being a great parent?
I need rich parents. How do I get rich people to adopt me?
So you want rich parents adopt you! Right. So consider they lost everything after adopting you! Then what would be your course of action?By the standard of this question i can say undoubtedly that the person is mentally sick and has no respect for the parents who gave birth to him. Also he has no respect for his own as he wants to live life freely without extra efforts by relying on others income.Those who cannot respect others, cannot respect themselves and also cannot get respect from others as well. By all means what i am understanding now is, By this mindset you are now alone and nobody wants to be friends with you nor nobody cares you. So in this scenario, even if you are adopted, you will be kicked out very soon because of this very attitude and mindset.A small Advice: Instead of relying on others income, try to build self-respect. Try to build your own future. Try to be honest and try to help needy. I don’t think you can understand the importance and satisfaction while helping others. Try once and you will feel the satisfaction in your life which you are missing. Also most importantly, Respect your parents, your brothers and sisters and your friends as well.Money can only buy you things and luxury but cannot buy you happiness. I am sure nobody can be happy with loads of money when there are nobody with you. So build trust with people instead of running for money. Money is important but it is not the life. It is one of the requirement in our life.Hope you realize and enjoy the life!
Should Black Children only be adopted by Black People
In 2004, 26 percent of black children available for adoption went to white families. There are many black groups and people in Congress trying to stop this. They say that white families aren't the ideal place for black children because they do not know what it is like to be black, with all the struggles and history of slavery here. They say that the black children in white homes may grow up confused, not have an identity, and not know what it is like to be black in America. There is a law going through Congress to have adoption agencies use race preference in selecting homes for minority kids. The black children would go to black families and only go to white families if they were in the system an extremely long time and couldn't be placed in a black home, or were mentally/physically handicapped. Right now Democrats are supporting it in Congress and Republicans are against it. What do you think about it? http://www.nytimes.com/2008/05/27/us/27adopt.html?pagewanted=1&_r=1&adxnnlx=1217701257-8UgGZ0WLCH4AuQjtymsHhw
Why don't some extremely rich people adopt a family?
THEY SHOULD!!!! I do, and i am not even rich! I love to wake up in the morning and know that even though i don't have enough money to even go out to a fancy restaurant, A little orphan girl in Darfur is staying alive in a nice safe boarding school thanks to my tips!!! Everyone should give to a single person/family, becuase it is much more rewarding, and tends to help much more. Some rich people just don't care.
Why would poor people want to have kids?
Do you know what it's like to struggle? Do you know what it's like to go hungry or always wear second-hand clothes or always drive an used car? I do. I grew up in a family with three brothers, there were four of us in all. So I know what it's like to always have a used car. I know what it's like to were hand me down clothes. I definitely know what it's like to be hungry. Because of these types of struggles, financial or otherwise I can not figure out why people who lived on or below the proverbial poverty line would want an extra burden. If a person has lived a life where they experienced the hardships I described in my first paragraph, then I don't understand why they would want to inflict these same obstacles on another person, much less a child. This will have a great impact on the child.Being poor does not just affect your life, it affects your well being and your mind set. I grew up in a working class family and that state of being really skewed my views on society and culture in general. It shaped how I lived as an adult.There are two reasons why a poor family would want a child. The first one being they do not realize the financial impact raising a child has on a family. If they already have a child (whilst being poor) then they certainly either didn't learn their lesson or are being selfish.The second reason is, that they are going to depend on social services and government assistance. They will use tax payer's money to raise their child; in reality the tax payer (that is you and me) is indirectly raising their child(ren).In today's society, unlike during the 19th and first-half of the 20th century's there is no reason to have an unwanted pregnancy with the availability of birth control. There are many other reasons and a lot of them have to do with what country the person lives in, their religion, or a host of other factors; I'm writing about people in the US.
Why are people against adoption?
Because you hear more about the bad stories than the good ones. Most people think and feel like children should stay with their birth family. As someone who was once in this boat, let me enlighten you on some aspects.My mother is and always will be a terrible human being. She cares nothing about anyone other than herself. She has multiple children, and she raised a whopping 0 of them. That is correct, she has enough progeny to field a sports team, and she raised not a single one of us. I have siblings that I've never even met, they don't even know I exist. Now, I wasn't given up for adoption, mainly because my mother moved out of the county, so social services couldn't do anything about it, but eventually mother's little habit caught up with her, lights got shut off, food became scarse, and I got shipped off to go live with a sibling that was 20 years older than me that I'd met maybe once. She was the ONLY relative I could have gone to. This isn't the case with all families, but with some, it is. My uncles and aunts are all junkies, drunks, and one pedophile. Grandma was a major alcoholic and pathological liar. Grandpa was nowhere to be found. Sometimes family members are either too screwed up themselves, or they just don't want to be bothered with everyone else's issues.All of my siblings were either given up for adoption or fostered out long before I was born. My family is highly dysfunctional. My brothers and sisters that I do know both have severe emotional and psychological issues. I have issues. I'm the most well adjusted of the bunch, and everyone in my family swears I'm some sort of sociopath, or autistic, they can never decide on which one.Kids who are given up for adoption are generally coming from a situation that is bad. When I left my mother's house we'd been without power for a long time. I was bathing in candlelight and cold water. The only meals I was eating were at school, or a friend's house. My shoes were held together by sheer luck, my toes poked out of them. One way or another, I was going to wind up not living with my mother.
How can you get adopted to a rich family ?
First of all your question has nothing to so with Genealogy and Second if you have parents you live with you don't get adopted. Most people who are adopted have families of average income very few are adopted by "rich" families. The children adopted by the truly wealthy are actually few and far between. Recently movie stars are adopting children from other countries and it is making news, but that is also not the norm. Finally, if you are a minor in a position for adoption talk to your case worker and let them know that you want a "rich family". They will probably be able to explain the adoption process and what your right to choose really is.
Are rich people worse parents?
It depends, my dad worked really hard and my family and by the standards of at least 75% (maybe much more) of the people I meet, to them I am considered loaded.When I was born I’d say my family was middle class. Now as much as I try to lie to myself as say we’re upper middle class, everyone else sees me as the son of a rich multi-millionaire. And I can’t deny it when our garage has nothing but what people consider luxury cars, apart for 1 Toyota Camry which me and my brother share.My mom pampers us a lot, which I’ve gotten far too used to… and I admit I subconsciously am a bit disrespectful to her. I am far more educated, and just know a lot more things than her, not to say she’s dumb but it’s because I’ve had the opportunity to go to good private schools. So for my mom, she isn’t a bad mom, she’s a great mom, especially when she’s able to put up with my terrible attitude.My dad on the other hand, when I was younger, I was terrified of my dad. He always forced us to do things we didn’t want to “for the sake of our betterment”. In a way that’s good parenting, but I felt like he tried a little too hard. Now I feel like he’s given up a bit? Or maybe has learned to be more accepting of not having “perfect kids” that all these typical upper class parents try to churn out…grade 8–9 piano/violin players, straight A students…etc.My dad is still a very strict dad. And tensions get a tad bit higher when he is around as we can’t make inappropriate jokes around him mostly because it feels awkward to do so…But I think it’s not rich people make the worse parents, by definition my parents are rich, but both my parents came from fairly humble beginnings, my dad much more so than my mom. So from my perspective maybe it’s only rich people, that were born rich that are the ones that make the worse parents, self made rich people may make the best parents.
