Nashville Escorts: An adoption movement? Agencies say interest on rise
20 07 2010Stoddart, of Nightlight Christian Adoptions, said despite the positive increase in interest, some children — older ones and minorities, for instance — remain the toughest to place into families. The outlook is not good for an orphan from a foreign country who never finds a home.
“That still is a great need,” Stoddart said. “With those kids, if they’re not adopted, we know what happens when they age out of the orphanage. They become victims of one sort or another. The girls get into prostitution and the boys into petty street crime and drugs. The number of kids who commit suicide is staggering. Here in the United States we have kids that have problems during their teen years and rebel, but there still is that family that is there as a safety net. When you get out of an orphanage at age 17 or 18, there is no family.”
