Adoption is a big controversy in the world. There is so many families going through it.
But what is it for? To help the child? My sisters and I went through this process. It was a little
different because we were adopted through our family. But we were going through the situations

doing drugs is a big problem. Seeing it personally helped my perspective on adoption. Yes some
families will be taken apart but every child is given the option to get adopted through family if it
