      I'm a little uncomfortable with all of this "adoption" talk.  Do Americans adopt Russian babies?  Is this a common thing?  I've heard of people adopting babies from China and from African countries but never Russia.

      First the lawyer talks to Don Jr about Russia and then Trump talks with Putin about adoption?  Why is this even a topic?  Does Russia want to adopt the United States?

          People, like my father and his 2nd wife, wind up "purchasing" babies from other countries when they are designated to be UNFIT to be parents in the USA.

              Fair enough but Trump told the NYT last week that he talked with Putin about adoption.  Why on earth are these two world leaders who have supposedly never met talking about this?  It's kinda like the CEO of McDonalds taking care of the broken refrigerator at the McDonalds on Highway 86 in Omaha Nebraska.  It's not an issue that a leader deals with, especially not in the very first meeting.

                  All you need is some cunt of a social worker and you're declared unfit.

                  We had this problem and fought it and won.  It still didn't fix anything because the city adoption agency said they couldn't work with us because they didn't feel we would trust them anymore.

                  Lose - lose situation.
