Yes, but 99.9% of those couples want to adopt a newborn, not a child that has already lived with abusive parent(s). Kids like this who are taken from their parents almost always end up in foster care, which sorry to say, is usually not much better. And in the case of foster care, our tax dollars pay for it.

It would be wonderful if "perfect couples" were lining up to adopt kids who have been abused, but it's simply not the case.
