I saw a documentary a long time ago about the one child rule in China and it was so horrific. Considering, there is a one child rule there most couples don't want a girl, therefore they give them up for adoption. That is where it gets sad, as they become a ward of the country, and these homes are so terrible. A journalist snuck this film out, which is unbelievable in its self. If a child was badly handicapped or had a disease they were put in a room by themselves until they starved to death. You could hear the child screaming and the journalist was not aloud to go in to that particular room, but he was told that was what was going on. Of course this is not something we ever hear about due to China being a communist country. The other children were hardly taken care of either, just a really sad thing. People who say, "why would someone go to another country and adopt when we have kids here who need a home", well our children are not treated this way.
