I heard about this story today.
I made me sick to hear about it.
I came home and read the story and saw this picture.
Now not only am I sick but I am angry!
Why was this child sent to Mexico?
Why is "blood relation" put above the safety and life of children?
Please read this story....and then DO SOMETHING!
I am probably preaching to the choir...so forward it to everyone you know and encourage them to become an advocate for children.
This is just another fine example of my theory.
IF more people who are in a crisis pregnancy would place their babies for adoption there would be less children in foster care.
If only this little girl could have been adopted by a loving family.
If only....
Adopting through States is not easy or a "perfect" system.
It never will be unless we all do something about it.
Too bad someone isn't doing something about Oregon.
I am told it is one of the worst.
Maybe we could all be that someone.

They may not listen to those of us who live outside of Oregon but I think we should write anyway.
And if you know of family or friends in Oregon...encourage them to get involved.
Then take time to learn about the foster care system in your state.
What can you do to be an angel to children who is in need?
Last of all....Report Child Abuse or any type, physical, sexual, mental/emotional and neglect.
We need to use our voice until we are heard!
