Thousands of children and babies have been abandoned by their parents all over the world. As a result, they need to be adopted so that they can have a better life and a secure beginning. However, it is not possible to find homes for all of these orphaned and abandoned children. Fortunately, baby adoptions have been in the news a lot lately due to celebrities. To be honest, I have a hard time dealing with how they are going about doing it, even though I am glad they are putting the spotlight on adoption.
These babies are adopted from places they have never been before and may never see again. Now, I really don’t mind that celebrities are encouraging baby adoptions, but I have a problem with them not realizing that charity should begin at home. In my opinion, you should start in your own back yard if you want to save the world. The US may seem to be a privileged nation, but it can be easy to forget that many people and children in our own nation also need help.
I’m trying to say that our nation’s orphaned and abandoned are also good enough for baby adoptions. These poor children do not have a better chance of having a good life than any one else in the world, even if they are from the U.S. You should take a good look at your own country if you don’t think that this is true. I have also noticed that older babies and children are often forgotten. The high cost baby adoptions that are going on are generally only for newborns.
I think that baby adoptions should be about love. It should make the world a better place for children. Celebrities should partake in baby adoptions in other parts of the world as quietly as possible. Of course, I realize this isn’t always their choice, but they should still try to keep it quiet. Baby adoptions that are done by celebrities are often sensationalized and appear to be going on for the wrong reasons. There are babies and children everywhere who desperately need a home, and there is no need to jet off across the globe to find them.
