Adoption rates in freefall after court ruling leaves children languishing in unsuitable homes

Adoption rates in freefall after court ruling leaves children languishing in unsuitable homes

Get this...

The number of children being put forward for adoption has plummeted over the past year following a series of court rulings that have left local authorities frightened of removing them from birth families.

That is a good thing.

Now get this...

Child welfare experts are worried the decline will mean more children suffering in unsuitable and unsafe homes. It also means agonising delays for parents approved for adoption who now find no children are available.

F*** them!  

Pathetic that that the lack of stolen babies to feed the adoption market is the main concern.

Now I come across another headline....
