Can't they imagine how an adopted child seeing that shirt would feel??<BR/><BR/>So many people are just trying to be clever and make a quick buck.<BR/><BR/>It's like people criticizing celebrities for their choice to adopt as if they're doing it for publicity and not for the reasons the rest of us are. As if they don't go through the same soul-searching process that the rest of us do.hazelhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02231091392575628479noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-22366945.post-54654704479054098632007-04-26T20:32:00.000-04:002007-04-26T20:32:00.000-04:00Thanks for writing about this!

I'm certainly sending them a letter.<BR/><BR/>Unfortunately we are up against aparents in our Yahoo group who are defending this shirt because they really don't see the message in it and how ugly it is. I'm trying to gently explain it to them....that adoption is not "hip", nor "cool" nor some "fad". Hopefully they can understand that. If not, I am going to let them know how adoptees are reacting to the shirt to try to bring them around.MomEtc.https://www.blogger.com/profile/11318169504182991122noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-22366945.post-44942238913001752392007-04-25T21:47:00.000-04:002007-04-25T21:47:00.000-04:00Goodness!
