I know that adoption and foster care systems arent perfect, but nothing is. It's completely devastating to the couple who tries for years to have a baby, and then 15 year old girl gets pregnant and aborts it, when that child could have had a loving home. Boohoo that she would have had to "house it" for 9 months.
Perhaps your perspective would change if you ever had to speak with a woman who had to give up a baby for adoption. I've never been put in that situation but one of my college friends did just that and not for money either. The psychological after affects are not pretty when you don't have the resources for support. The particular pro-life people who were so involved with her during the pregnancy were nowhere to be found a year later when she had her nervous breakdown.

The adoption and foster care systems have proven time and time again that their are very UNFIT people taking care of children.
