After Surviving The Foster Care System, This Woman Says Adoption Is Not The Solution To Abortion
It seems like the tumultuous political situation the US has going on right now is constantly flopping back and forth between reproductive rights and immigration rights, leaving us all with no shortage of stress and anxiety while we try to navigate these humanitarian issues among crowds of shrieking people, all angry at each other about things they seem to struggle to understand.
Recently, Olivia Paige turned to Facebook to offer an alternative, in depth perspective to the abortion debate by reflecting on her time spent in the foster care system of the US. She detailed the startling statistics that should lead anyone who favors adoption as a reasonable and rational solution to abortion into considering that we have a very serious adoption/foster care system in need of attention before we contribute to it and significantly increase the already overwhelming, under-funded programs.
Along with her status, Olivia shared a photo of a flyer that was handed out to prospective adopters when she was a teenager.

Olivia concluded with:
