"Gould 0738" wrote in message ... Has anyone seen anything about the need to adopt any of the children made parentless or familyless by the tsunami? With all the dead, there have to be lots of kids who will need a home. Send money. Very few infants would have survived conditions that killed both parents. Pulling older kids out of their cultural environment is a questionable practice at best. It may be better to create and fund a support structure for the older kids within their home countries, rather than subject them to the additional emotional and psychological trauma of losing contact with friends, locale, lanuguage, customs, and culture. As heartfelt and humane a gesture as adoption might be, not everybody wants to be, nor should become Western. Very true Chuck. Well said. |
