Awww, pooor girl.
How awful that someone wanted to make sure she was raised in a loving home and not turned out at 14. Shame on those awful people!!!

This woman was given up for adotpion because her bio-dad literally tried to kill her. How awful that she was adopted out of that family!

“In a country where ‘American’ is used synonymously with ‘white,’ my inability to speak fluent Korean combined with my inability to be white is a deformity,” she wrote in one of her memoirs. “I am a sort of monster, a mix of the familiar with the terribly unexpected, like a fish with a human face.”

Poor girl, her inability to reconcile her own back ground with who she is surely means no one should be adopted ever, right?

Poor, poor lady. Get some fucking counselling and sit down and shut up bitch. It’s too bad you cut yourself off from an apparently loving family to go somewhere you will never be accepted but that sounds like a problem of this self-absorbed bitches making.

The selfish and apparently racist bitches bad experience in life aside let’s look at the subtext here….

It not only provides child-care stipends to encourage more Koreans to adopt and to support single women who want to keep their children, but it also requires mothers to live with their babies for a week and receive counseling about the option of keeping them, before they relinquish custody.

This has nothing to do with the welfare of children and everything to do with a subtle subtext of proving that race and appearance mean more than love and family. the message is that whiters belong with whites and Asains belong with Asians and women belong in the fucking kitchen whether or not they want to be there or not.

I sympathize with this woman but she and the author of this article can go fuck themselves and drown. And I mean that with all sincerity.
