fuck that family they need to give the child back. and that is why we didn't adopt because this shit is wrong and so heart wrenching for all involved.

that is why we didn't adopt

That makes it sound like there aren't any orphans in the world.

there are however domestic adoption was the route we wanted to go and we would have liked to have adopted an infant.

There are, but at the same time the world of international adoption is incredibly corrupted and filled with stories of social stigma of single mothers, forced coercion etc. I hate to say it, but adoption has become a business of selling babies.

That makes it sound like there aren't any local orphans in the world.
