7. This adoptee says 'good.'

Adoption should be abolished. It's legal human trafficking. I was purchased. Want to hear about the trauma it's caused me my entire life? Ask any adoptee who's come out of the Fog.

In the meantime, No Child should be taken away from their country, their culture, their language. So good for China. It's a start.

If you are not adopted yourself, you don't have a dog in this hunt.
