ORTL can’t wait to spend taxpayer money on relinquishment incentives, maternity homes, crisis pregnancy camps, adopter tax breaks, and adoption advertising. To the best of my knowledge, it has never supported financial and material assistance to expecting and new moms and their babies, decent welcare payments, family preservation, fathers’ rights, or a living wage. Foster care is barely on their radar. And they do love baby abandonment boxes! Baby Box lover Jean Schmidt is a co-sponsor of the bill. Continue Reading →

The news story reported that a man in Pamplona had been sentenced to prison for breaking into a Catholic orphanage and stealing 200 (or maybe it was 400?) adoption files and then sending them to the now adults to whom they pertained. Unfortunately, the article was only a couple of paragraphs long and did not go beyond that basic information. Continue Reading →

According to the Houston Chronicle, several months ago a pregnant Juniper Bryson, 21, attempted to sell her up-and-coming-baby for $150, allegedly to keep him out of fostercare. This paltry amount, she said would enable her to “move into an apartment so I can work a job and get (my daughter) back, or a cheap down payment, or [sic] any car to get to different places to DoorDash.
