I believe that a child needs a loving, permanent home where he or she
can be nurtured and guided to a responsible adult life. I have never seen
any evidence that suggests that any particular racial or ethnic group has
a corner on those qualities that make for a good, loving parent.
That said, when conditions warranted foster care or adoption, I have
always endeavored to keep children within their own family and/or
neighborhood culture. Foster care & adoption, evan in the bset of
circumstances, is a traumatic, disruptive event; the more we can do to minimize the trauma, the better the child's chances for a bright future.
Now there are some high profile people like Angelina Jolie & Sandra Bullock
who has adopted a black child & they are doing fine!
Tell me what you think...
