Wacky Wednesday--Adoption Is A Bad Idea

Note: Before reading the following arguments, please understand that they are not what I believe. On Wednesdays, I deliberately argue for wrong ideas, challenging my listeners to call and defend the obvious right answer, which is usually far harder than one would expect. This is a summary of what Wacky Andrew will be arguing, not a representation of what real Andrew believes.


--You don’t know what you’re going to get.You’re inviting social services into your home

--Adoption is a difficult, frustrating, expensive, draining process.

--People with children may neglect them in trying to take care of new ones.

--No one has unlimited time, money, or emotional resources.

--What if the kids are dangerous or untrainable?

--Why would you take on the problems of kids who aren’t your own blood?

--We should be spreading the Gospel and evangelizing the lost, not squandering resources on orphans.

--How is it my fault that someone else made kids they can’t take care of?
