A practical look at the case currently in the news, where a facilitator and a mother committed fraud and exploitation by arranging for two sets of parents to adopt the same twin girls demonstrates the system works. They were caught. They are being prosecuted. The rights of both the children and injured couples are being defended. Government is doing all it should.
More hurdles really mean less opportunities.
Both profit and non-profit agency adoptions meet the needs of many, but are limited by political, legislative restrictions, and some seemingly arbitrary standards. For many adults and children who are left out, independent-facilitated adoptions answer their needs and create possibilities. The Internet, a libertarian community, with sites like The National Adoption Director, the North American Council on Adoptable Children and the National Adoption Information Clearinghouse, has opened access to millions for finding tools, information and resources needed for a safe, successful adoption. From the Libertarian perspective writing more laws and hiring more regulators won't prevent life's ills. But a government focused on its basic role, prosecution and punishment for those who aggress against us, coupled with an open market of both ideas and services does insure a life with the most possibilities for happiness.
