Getting angry enough from reading an KF thread to the point that you want to do something about itMATI? What does that mean?
I honestly think about this often when I come across social media accounts featuring families that have collected adopted multiple special needs children. Before the mid-2000s, many countries allowed foreigners to adopt as many children, especially special needs children, as they wanted, and people took advantage. Many countries that were formerly alluring for American prospective families, including Russia, Ukraine, Romania, Guatemala, the Democratic Republic of the Congo, Ethiopia, Cambodia, Vietnam, and China, have enacted extremely stringent laws which make international adoption extremely difficult or impossible altogether, following allegations of rampant corruption, coercion of birth parents, trafficking of children, and multiple high-profile cases of abuse or fatalities involving children adopted from abroad.
Anyway, a lot of the families who pursued international adoption framed it as "saving" a child from a life in an institution. I always wondered how much better it was for the kids who ended up in huge families, removed from their country, culture, and language.
I know of one family like this. They often adopt through “Reeces Rainbow” agency, and thankfully, the 2 disabled girls they got from a Ukrainian institution turned out to be easy going and are doing fantastic now. They don’t even look like the same kids, they are so healthy and happy.. (Another mom that adopted from there- they are friends- got a total nightmare RAD kid, it broke up her marriage …)
But this mom is addicted to babies and has had/acquired kids in every way possible- birth mom, step mom, foster, adopted from foster, adopted overseas from an institution, domestic infant adoption, adopted an embryo and birthed a black baby (her and husband are white ofc).
There are 16 kids at their house now, IIRC. I think all the adopted ones are disabled in some way.
Overall they do a very good job with this many kids, but I always wonder if she’s gonna push it, try to birth another, and die while trying (very possible). Hope not!
Not to defend Gwen, but didn't they not realize the condition was even genetic til Lola ended up with it? I know she still chose to continue the pregnancy despite prenatal diagnosis of the same issues, but aren't most cases of microcephaly/etc just spontaneous and not genetic?
Regardless I think immobile spuds are basically the perfect kids for narcissists, due to their lack of ability to go against whatever the narc wants.
I hate that I know exactly who you’re talking about.the woman on Instagram that adopted two albino Chinese girls & color coordinates them with her house
Any parent whose house is coordinated like a Target ad is a massive red flag. I hope those girls are happy and well cared for, but I can't help but think they have a raging IG narcmom who probably flips her shit at them doing normal kid things in her photostudio house
That group has been posted about ITT before. One of the things medfagging has taught me is that even to this day, T18&13 are usually fatal by early childhood, particularly all the heart and lung defects. I assume that's what that baby has going on, poor kid.The saddest and most baffling to me are the “incompatible w life” babies that fundy moms proudly birth, loudly boasting how they beat the odds and showed those mean docs who pushed abortions on them.
I recently found “Trisomy 13/18 warriors” Honestly it just seems cruel. Death isn’t the worst outcome, it can be a blessing.
While some genetic-issue kids seem happy, there are so many in this category that are obviously miserable. Their whole lives are medical appointments, getting poked w needles, tubes, surgeries. They can’t see, talk, walk, communicate, but they can feel pain endlessly.
All while their mommies talk about the latest hospital trip, procedure, and how great God is for letting the kid live past the 2 weeks that was predicted. And always how abortion would have robbed the world of this wonderful gift.
But god isn’t letting them live- modern medicine is (millions of dollars of it). Plus all the extra care- these kids get round the clock caregivers. I guess they keep lots of people employed, so that’s good.
This sweet little girl below looks uncomfortable in every single bit of media she’s in.
There’s another little baby in this group that doesn’t have eyes, can’t open his fists, and also looks unhappy in every image. I truly hope he’s really happy and enjoying life, and the pics are not a good indicator. He looks very loved, but also very uncomfortable.
I would love to know if the moms really think this is a good life worth living, or if they would take it back if they could. Seems like a massive cope on their part, but who knows w fundies.

Paisley’s a Braves fan, nice.
Sorry if already covered-
Has anyone posted the woman on Instagram that adopted two albino Chinese girls & color coordinates them with her house?
For many of these parents, I think their decision to put their severely disabled children all over the Internet betrays that deep down, they don't think of them as fully human or deserving of basic dignity, and that's disgusting.
Or even worse it's the foster kid version of animal hoarding.
Dr. Dobyns (notice me senpai) told Gwen that he thought whatever Claire had was likely inherited in an autosomal recessive manner, and recommended preimplantation genetic diagnosis if they planned to have more children. I recall that Gwen was particularly irked by his saying that they could "help [her] have healthy babies".Not to defend Gwen, but didn't they not realize the condition was even genetic til Lola ended up with it? I know she still chose to continue the pregnancy despite prenatal diagnosis of the same issues, but aren't most cases of microcephaly/etc just spontaneous and not genetic?

The situations that result in kids needing foster care often involve such incredibly fucked up home lives that even CPS gets off its ass and takes them out of the home. As a result the kids themselves are often incredibly fucked up with huge behavioral issues.
Is that picture on the left what I think it is - a child who had open heart surgery, and for some reason, the incision was not closed right away? Just curious - what disorder does this unfortunate child have, or do you know?This sweet little girl below looks uncomfortable in every single bit of media she’s in.

That is fucked up. I don’t care whether the adopted kids are ostensibly better off in that household rather than languishing in an institution: there is no way that each kid gets the individual love, care and attention they need, with so many pseudo-siblings to compete with, and a mother constantly looking for her next fix
That life is probably not much different to an actual institution tbh.
I used to know this kind of shit. But basically, the ribcage and some other stuff didn't completely form within the womb and now the kid has to wear an custom chestplate.Is that picture on the left what I think it is - a child who had open heart surgery, and for some reason, the incision was not closed right away? Just curious - what disorder does this unfortunate child have, or do you know?
It looks like it's Trisomy 18 (Edwards syndrome) or 13 (Patau syndrome) although the open chest is pretty horrific and I don't think either of those usually have that. Most of these kids don't even last a year and they're better off.Is that picture on the left what I think it is - a child who had open heart surgery, and for some reason, the incision was not closed right away?

There's a kid whose parents are posting on Instagram right now to document his heart transplant. He has hypoplastic left heart syndrome (HLHS), a congenital heart defect in which the left side of the heart fails to form. This used to be fatal at or immediately after birth, but now kids can be bridged with a series of palliative surgeries before getting a transplant.Is that picture on the left what I think it is - a child who had open heart surgery, and for some reason, the incision was not closed right away?
