I am now in the market for adopting-out my future child.?

Question

The father is smart, the mother is pretty. No drugs/no diseases.

Serious inquiries only

This is actually a question about how we as society deny realism. I am not having a baby, I'm a single guy, so here is my thesis.

In my humble opinion, the "differences" which lead couple #1 to adopt the scarce baby (who we will call exhibit--A) when couple #1, couple #2 and couple #3 all were seeking the scarce resource.

I am basically clueing in the world that "economics" is the invisible force which enforces glass-ceilings, which enforces racism, and enforces "investor stupidity"--I'm a finance guru--would love to write 30 pages on this subject, and I defecate and vomit every time that I hear of people not realizing that stocks are only a better investment than safer assets, based on nominal data.

The truth is that, yes, overall if you have $100 you can invest in stocks or bonds or real-estate or REIT's or FOREX or other 4-letter words. Please share your thoughts logically?!

Answer 4

You know that this is not even funny. You ask a question that is actually false giving people that are looking to adopt a let down and then you ask some type of other gibberish question that only a rocket scientist could understand. Thanks a lot. (Not) Stop playing with peoples heart strings!

Answer 5

There's definitely a difference in race with adoption.  Unfortunately, in my state a child is considered special needs when they're over 7 & white...or over 2 & black or bi-racial.  That's because it's more difficult to find homes for black or bi-racial children.  

We have two biological kiddos...two adopted who are of Latin descent...and we've had lots of foster kids with different skin colors to super pale white to super dark black.  We'd adopt a child not based on skin, eye or hair color but based on the connection we felt with that child and with a desire to give that child a loving, permanent family.

It seems that most folks want to adopt a child that looks like them, though.

We've talked to people who work in the system, people who are social workers, adoptive parents, foster parents and just people in general & the thing we've concluded is that there's a hierarchy in adoption.  The healthy white child is most prized, then there's asian adoptees, then there's hispanic (in order of preference lighter skin to darker) then there's bi-racial and then black (again, in order of preference from lighter skin to darker).

Part of the problem is the desire to have a child who "looks like us", part of the problem is also the shortage of black families who choose to foster and adopt.

What you're doing is smelling like a scam artist.

People dont come onto yahoo to sell their babies unless theyre con artists looking to sucker some money from baby hungry couples.

I think your study is in the wrong outlet.

Answer 11

In truth society is not set up to see realism as an alternative to fantasy. We as a race of humans deny truth with it slapping us in the face. Unfortunately, finance guru's, with the intent to raise the hopes of intended parents with a thesis masquerading as a question on yahoo's message boards, is in an extreme state of denial.
