I really want to adopt but have always been put off by the whole bureaucracy surrounding the process. To go through the lengthy and intrusive process only to be informed by some pen-pusher that I am not suitable would break my heart. And all the whilst there are little bubbas out there in homes, growing up, or should I say surviving up, with little/no nurturing.... There are millions out there who, like me, would be willing to lose an arm for the cause but who, don't even try... I challenge the powers that be to make the whole process more transparent and to focus on the real challenges of getting these wee bubbas into real homes where real life is lived...
