S2E26 FOSTER CARE SYSTEM AND STATE-AWARDED INCENTIVES FOR ADOPTION


Listen Later

***EPISODE CONTAINS ADULT LANGUAGE AND MIGHT NOT BE SUITABLE FOR CHILDREN.

November is Adoption Awareness Month

Are you AWARE that the states get kickback incentives for adoptions through the foster care system? 

Are you AWARE that these incentives are based on how adoptable you are? If you are 14 and older, you are considered 'harder to place,' and the price tag for your adoption is much higher than younger children. 

Are you AWARE that almost $900 million dollars have been awarded to eligible states since these kickbacks have started?

Are you AWARE that some families are claiming the states are legally kidnapping their children through the court system and adopting them out for money? These are closed adoptions so these families may never see their family members again!

Are you AWARE that private adoptions can cost well over $40,000?

Do we care that America's children have price tags on their heads? 

Why are children being trafficked by the government, and by agencies with deep pockets? 

Why is it legal for these government and private agencies to make money from the adoption of our children, but it is illegal and called trafficking if a person tries to adopt out their children for money?

The system is broken, and it's time to EDUCATE THE WORLD!

 THIS IS NOT OK!!!

If you or someone you know would like to tell their adoption story on the podcast (anyone in the adoptee constellation), please send an email to [email protected], and your story will be considered for the podcast.

Due to the LONG-LASTING EMOTIONAL FALLOUT that can be part of adoption, I highly support the GENTLE HEALING SUPPORT of SMGI: Somatic Mindful Guided Imagery. For more information on this groundbreaking and highly successful method, go to ⁠https://www.somatichealingjourneys.com⁠


Please seek professional help if you find yourself struggling with some of the realizations that you may experience during this episode.


This podcast's mission is on adoption education. If you have an expertise that you think would be beneficial to anyone touched by adoption and would like to be on the podcast, get in touch with me. I love to help fellow adoptees by helping to promote your latest project or expertise. It's time WE educate the world!!
