It is interesting to read about adoption in JAPAn usually being within the family.

I wonder if that is the NORM.
Adoption is a very big issue indeed and not to be taken on lightly.

The child should always be the first consideration above anything else. One has to ask oneself WHY one wants to adopt a child?

I know many adoptees and birth mothers who have many problems what about fostering a child that needs a loving home> DO the Japanese have a fostering system for children who have not parents or parents cannot care for themselves.


One has to think seriously of WHY? is it for the adopters benefit or the childs?
