Many looking to Africa to complete their families...

 

      Many Americans are choosing to adopt children in African countries. Because of poverty and wars, there are many orphans in Africa. Mostly, these children are adopted from Uganda, Ethiopia, and the Congo. If a  family wants to adopt a child from Africa, it can be very expensive. The families need to fly to the orphanage to pick up their child. In addition, adoption fees can range between $15,000 and $25,000. Although this brings joy to the adopting families, there are many people who think adopting from Africa is wrong. They say Americans should only adopt American orphans. What do you think?

    I think that Americans should adopt any race that their heart desires. I think that adopting from Africa is kind of a good thing because it saves another child's life at some cases. Plus, both sides are happy because the side that adopted is happy becasue they get a child and the other side is happy becuase they get cash and one less mouth to feed. So, in other words both sides benefit from it. Good blog post matthew, though you might want to add a link to it.
