I commend you for your well written and thought-out points. I hope the editor publishes your letter and prints a more positive story about the joy of adopting. Oh, and the comments some people made about the article were jaw dropping. Good job on the letter Nicky!! I commend you for your well written and thought-out points.

I was also very unhappy that they painted all African adoptions as being corrupt, etc. Ethiopia is an amazing country to adopt from and it's proccess is very straight forward. Maybe even better than domestic!? I hope that the tenacity and drive that we adoptive parents have to have to make it through all the paperwork and waiting will drive away those that are in it for the wrong reasons. We are here to make a family, not be trendy. I hope your letter gets published. Great letter Nicky.
