This was a question I had back when I was in elementary school. I had asked my mom but she had no clue. In my little brain I thought it was wrong to buy children, but now I’m wondering if that’s not actually the case. What is that money being spent on?

I thought the same until I became a lawyer and saw what actually happens, although I still believe it’s disgusting that we have people donating to museums when we have children in foster care. Anyway so in the instance where the parents are still alive you are literally taking away all the parents rights and giving them to the adoptive parent if the bio parents don’t consent. And as you can imagine a court is going to require a pretty damn good case before they say nope you will never be this child’s parent again. That case and the time it takes to prove that is not short or easy. And that’s just to take away the parents rights. Then you look at making sure the new parent is safe and actually good for the child. Yes we likely assume that any person that wants to adopt is good person but unfortunately I assure you they are not always. So the case has to be made why this person is fit to be appointed as this child’s parent. Imagine if there was not detailed case to determine that and children were then abused. We as society would hopefully not stand for that.
