It's a hard decision to make, and I understand being offended by the process.
My wife and I are adopting through the county's foster care system. And the
screening process was so invasive... I understand the need to screen and
protect the children, but I'm also a big time privacy person. The screening
process seemed to cross the line into invasion of privacy.

However, once we got through that process and actually had a child placed
with us, all of that was easy to forget. Our daughter is simply amazing, a
true blessing. She made it worth the process.

"You'll love it. it's not quite breakfast, it's not quite...lunch,
but it comes with a slice of cantaloupe at the end.  You don't get exactly
what you want for breakfast, but you get a good meal!"
