“It’s hard however to imagine an adopted person wanting to know such things, at any age. It seems morbid.”
Michele, many adult adoptees talk about how much their adopters paid for them. It’s a frequent topic of conversation on adoptee lists and forums. Many feel they were purchased. Why is this morbid? My own adoption, back in the old days, cost about $40 and my aparents got some money back on the deal. New models go for $#10,000-35,000 and more. Adoption is a money racket, and adoptees need to know it. Dawn should be commended for writing about it. BTW, I’ve seen a price list: the darker the skin, the lower the price.
