So Why All the White Couples Adopting Asian Kids?

Question

Just mighty curious. You see it a LOT. There's gotta be something to it. & don't hand me- "Hey- as long as a child in need is getting love" crap. There's a definite racial pattern that can't be ignored. It's Not a bad thing. Just very curious..

(maybe Brad & Jolie & Madonna might start an African child trend)...

Answer 1

I think fireball and others are right, as sickening as it is. I think Whites think that Asians are the next best thing to their own race.

The red tape thing mightbe part of it. Maybe.

It's a slap in the face to all the babies in the USA who are still waiting.

Answer 2

People who want children don't usually care what race they are, they just want to give a loving home to a child who needs one.
In Asia people are having too many kids and don't want some of them, I think the government has some kind of tax on having too many. There are too many people there now.
Actually people are adopting kids from Guatamala, Russia, Croatia, and other places.
If the white girls that get pregnant in this country would give their babies up for adoption instead of having abortions or keeping them there would be a lot more US babies available. Then the welfare system would be less taxed also.

Answer 3

People who are adopting just want kids, plain and simple. They want a family. And there are so many orphans in Asia that it's the easiest place to get a child from and they have the biggest needs. It just makes sense.

I knew a family growing up...white couple, Korean daughter, African son. Talk about a blended family!

Answer 4

i've got concept approximately that too - lots. some ppl say this is b/c this is lots greater decrease priced to get teenagers from overseas. it relatively is tough to have faith IMO with the return and forth to Asia, and so on. i individually think of maximum white ppl think of Asians are the subsequent perfect component to them. White couples might particularly undertake white teenagers, yet there are not that many interior the U.S. so that they get asians.

Answer 5

Because in Asia it is common for families not to want to female child because they are only allowed one child and they want it to be a boy to continue the family name. If they get a daughter it is common for them to put it up for adoption. Most adoptive parents want to raise their kids from babies instead of when they are older, and it is also a lot easier to adopt in Asia than America.

Answer 6

It's easier to do. Not as much red tape.

US kids are bogged down in the foster care system and many people who try to adopt lose the children back to the birth parents before all is said and done.

Answer 7

Mainly it's due to the shortage of available white babies to adopt domestically. Until recent generations, many teens who had babies out of wedlock placed them for adoption because of the stigma associated with out-of-wedlock birth. That stigma is almost entirely gone now, so the vast majority of unwed mothers keep their babies. That, plus the widespread availability of abortion has meant that the number of white babies available for adoption has dropped.

At the same time, more white couples are waiting until they're older to have children, which increases the liklihood of trouble conceiving because women are in their prime childbearing years in their late teens and early 20's. After that, difficulty conceiving and risk of miscarriage increase. So, at the same time that the supply of white babies has fallen, the demand has risen.

Domestic adoption involves risks of recission that foreign adoptions don't. Also, there are far more black babies for adoption domestically but the plain truth is that few whites are looking to adopt black babies. That may partly be in response to hostility from parts of the black community to whites adopting black babies (at one point, therer was a huge reaction against it by black social workers who placed black infants for adoption) and partly due to racial bias against blacks.

But there are millions of unwanted babies in China, Vietnam and other countries and there is little risk of recission of such foreign adoptions because birth parents have often abandoned their children. That, plus the belief that Asians tend to be bright and hard working and the lack of continuing serious racial beef between Asians and whites add up to lots of such adoptions.

Answer 8

they are in demand... there is a lack of white babies, and now, i heard that china is imposing stricter controls in who can adopt from their country (my theory is that it is because their economy is doimng better now)

anyhow, i dont want to say anything cuz of racial insensitivities, but if you look closely, u will find the answer

Answer 9

Easier to adopt then finding baby white kids.

Answer 10

what's weird is most of these adopted kids attended/attend prestigious universities.
