sunny asked:

Did you know that 25-35% of young people in residential treatment centers are adoptees? That’s 17 times the norm. Adoptees are morelikely to have problems with drugs and alcohol abuse, eating disorders, ADD, and suicide?

And that adoptees are 15 times more likely than their non-adopted peers to kill their adopters? Adoptees represent 16% of all serial killers but are only 2-3% of the general population?

Why does this institution continue in all but the most dire cases? Is it because it’s a $1.4 billion business?

Why else?
Bugsy: Biased sites? These are studies–they’re not opinion, dear. The crime statistics come from Dr. David Kirschner, who has been working with adoptees for 30 years!
Okay, staistics lesson here:
25-35% of 2-3% of the adopted population is very different than
65-75% of 98% non-adopted population, Can you see the difference. Kala?

Cowboy–Geez, you sure are clever, coming on here calling me a ‘loser’–where’d you get that from– your sixth grader? I think that’s against Y!A’s TOS, but whatev. Funny, I’ve never heard of you?! But you seem so well-versed on my answers…must be one of those name-swappin’ APs! By the by, ‘infertility’ is not mentioned in my post. You must have it on the brain, dear. You might want to seek help for that.
