Child Trafficking: Pound Pup Legacy
People need to recognize what's being done to parents and children is
criminal. Poor people are offered money to relinquish their child,
others are promised an education for their children and their eventual
return, only later to find out adoption is a permanent measure. Some
children are even kidnapped, and stolen and taken to an orphanage, where
there are forced to live in ghastly conditions.
This website section contains discussions and articles about child trafficking in the context of international adoption. In addition, a
collection of known cases of child trafficking can be viewed,
demonstrating how the demand for adoptable infants actually creates
"orphans" for those wanting to believe international adoption protects
poor children from a life of crime and homelessness.
International adoption is big business and with that come unethical
practices. In several countries the ultimate goal for children in
orphanages is to be adopted abroad. Sadly, many young children
are finding themselves living in an orphanage only because of the
existence of international adoption.

ADOPTION TRUTH
As the single largest unregulated industry in the United States, adoption is viewed as a benevolent action that results in the formation of “forever families.”
The truth is that it is a very lucrative business with a known sales pitch. With profits last estimated at over $1.44 billion dollars a year, mothers who consider adoption for their babies need to be very aware that all of this promotion clouds the facts and only though independent research can they get an accurate account of what life might be like for both them and their child after signing the adoption paperwork.
NOMINATED: Trio Solutions (Baby Veronica case)
The same professional PR firm that targeted Baby Veronica's father Dusten Brown, pulled out their arrows again and aimed them at yet another father in yet another contested adoption. The exact same tactics (purchasing Facebook likes; setting up an online shop to raise money in a child's name; smearing the father through any means necessary, including nationally-launched press releases; calling in the national press, including CNN; purposely working the public up into an angry lather; having their contractors set up websites to incite anger and hatred of the bio father) were used on John McCaul this year and last. They attempted the same thing with other children's biological families as well, including Baby Dee.
So, I would like to nominate them for their role in meddling in adoption cases and using the weight and cost of an entire Public Relations team to target poorer, less social media savvy birth families.
