I'm one of ten adopted children in my family. I've talked about this on here before, but it seems relevant to this thread. My father was a doctor, and my parents specifically adopted children with medical problems. Two sisters have spina bifida, brother had a hole in his heart, other brother had problems with skull fusion, my two youngest sisters were basically traded to a pedophile in exchange for heroin. It's a cold world out there, but there's still good people left. Not saying I'm one of them, but my parents are.
I have some info from my adoption file, but past that I never looked. It's not that important to me. Some of my siblings have, but for me personally it's not a can of worms I want to open.
The guy that did it is dead. You wouldn't believe me if I told you that story. Fairly certain that their mother has lived the last 30 years in abject misery and pain.
Hey ten is a lot. Can't expect perfection and I'm a product of that environment. I'm grateful for them though. Mama tried to raise me better, but her pleading I denied, that leaves only me to blame cause mama tried.
I've never understood that argument (fundies want to ban abortion but not take care of babies). Trad communities have plenty of charities to take care of the genuinely needy.
Honestly it's a reasonable concern. Exactly the same thing happened in Brazil with a woman who adopted hundreds of children. She was banging them indiscriminately.

40 had HIV since birth
100 had developmental problems
All of them abandoned
This is single best argument FOR abortion that I've seen in ages.
