Lawmaker pushes ban on overseas adoption
I think the Korean Government specifically and Korean society in general should do more about helping families - meaning single moms - stay intact with financial and program support. Promoting domestic adoption is a great thing, but banning international adoption won't stem the plunging birthrate.

I think international adoption remains a viable option. However, it should not be used as the primary option by any country with the means to sufficiently support families who need it.
My son was adopted internationally from Korea and I have to say he was and ia a miracle to me. I try to connnect him to his culture as much and as often as I can and will take him to Korea when he is old enough to understand his adoption. I think international adoption can be a very positive experience. Is it better to leave children to be raised in an orphanage??
