There was a program on PBS about that last year. Those old f***er's made a big fuss over young boys.
We in Europe or America have no idea what survival actually means.
Just a peek inside America back a few years ago. Florida had a small embarrassment as family of children put into state care for some reason, were lost. No one in the protectives services had any idea where they were. These children were not up for adoption, just placed in care if there was any question about their living conditions.
Parent or guardian may have had a couple kids in their car and stopped for DUI, not at that time proved but the kids were taken to a safe place . Not to matter if the parent was found innocent or guilty, when they went looking for their kids they were not in any data base and just disappeared off the face of the earth.
Story of what on in in-laws family---------
Teenage girl became pregnant and her family were very religious, she was placed in a home in my area for unwed mothers, she was an embarrassment to family. This is a small town in New Hampshire
As she could not talk to her family she reached out to her in laws with the problem she faced. She gave birth to a healthy boy, blond hair and blue eyes. By the time the boy was 3 months old, chubby, healthey and gaining a personality, the mother began to be pressured to give the baby up.
For no reason the staff was taking pictures of her baby alone, she was not in the picture. The mother was still in school and working part time, she found that she could not have any private time with the baby without a staff member being there and recording each and every interaction between the baby and her.
At 4 months of the baby's age she was being bombarded with threats that she was not a good mother, her child would be taken away as she had no place to live and still in school. The last straw was the offer of $15,000 to release her son to an adopted family.
Now with all this crap the Mothers parents and remarkably the baby's Father and family got involved. Yanked her and baby out of the place and then had to face a law suit that they had kidnapped the child.
No telling what people will do for money, to this day I have no idea what happend to the Mother or son, just that blood is thicker then water or money.
I am sure this girl was not just a fluke, it happens all the time. Selling baby's, or being a surrogate to incubate others children is big money.
