It makes me sad as well. But weve had kids languishing in foster care for forever. The only reason we have ILP A for them in a few states is those kids went to the state with the support of social workers. Its not about pitting. Its about addressing long standing needs and not seeing the long term damage in lives ruined by aging out. I agree there are large international issues. But have you seen anyone lining up recently to provide permanent homes for teens in care? Forgotten is the more correct term in my opinion. Surrendered babies and refugee children tug at hearts while kids who desperately need adoption in the neighborhood are assumed to be taken care of by some mystical system that is not available. It doesnt have to be about corporate policy. It could be about local responsibility. Local awareness. It could really be that simple. Local churches. Local groups promoting local needs for local kids who need local families. Well said Jill Johnson-Young
