    My parents: “Adoption is amoral. Those children come from godless families.”

    My sister can’t have kids, adopts two.

    My parents: “Adoption is God’s way of making sure every child can grow up in a loving home.”

      🤢 As someone who just went through a very lengthy adoption process to rescue my niece and nephew from the system, that first line makes me feel extra sick. How the fuck can you be so full of nastiness towards parentless children who got into the system through life circumstances they couldn’t possibly help.
