“The fact that some people don't go about arranging adoptions in the right way is not a surprise to any government. But because this case has gotten a lot of attention, it is a good reminder that people need to be thoughtful and well informed so that they don't accidentally violate a law. All governments are vigilant about protecting their children; just because children are poor doesn't mean others can come in and scoop them up. People should make sure they are well informed.”
