adoption: a different view from the inside

This article is haunting me, so I'm going to share it. Not all children put up for adoption are orphans. I knew that. Yet, while I'd heard of families giving up their children because they simple can't afford to care for them, this is the first story I've read from the parents' perspective.

Don't get me wrong - I am 100% pro-adoption. If the Lord wills, I myself want to adopt. However, I'm also convinced that sometimes even our very best intentions still aren't enough to outweigh the consequences of our ignorance. But, as usual, I don't have the answers... only more questions.
