Black Market Adoption

  • Landau, Elaine

“For many people, nothing is more natural than wanting a child. And for those who cannot have their own, there has always been the option of adoption. The reality, however, is that legal agency adoptions are not such a real choice, after all. This has led to the immoral, profit-making business of selling babies on the black market.”
“This topical, eye-opening book begins with the story of an “adoption” gone wrong: the death of little Lisa Steinberg in New York City. Although news stories of the child’s death and the trial of her stepfather stunned the nation, black market adoptions continue. Often it begins with an unmarried pregnant woman who wants her baby to have a better life than she thinks she can give it, and a “helpful” doctor or lawyer who knows a couple who want to adopt a baby.”
