International Baby Harvesting and Adoption-Abduction

The harvesting of body parts of babies is unethical. But what about harvesting babies to supply the adoption market? Baby harvesting goes on in America but it happens in other countries as well. Many Americans are surprised to learn that children from other countries have families - their belief is that babies from other countries fall from the sky - or perhaps come from some sort of a vending machine. The truth is, the mothers, fathers and siblings of these children may miss them terribly. And too often, the young children or babies were kidnapped or else baby harvesting "factories" set up to get more babies for adopters.

Harvesting Korean Babies Korea must stop overseas adoption Tobias Hubinette, Korea Herald, Feb 28, 2005

" from the 1980s and even more since the 1990s, the absolute majority of children who are nowadays sent to foreign countries are born by young and unwed girls attending high school or college. These young girls in their teenage of early 20s, often from a middle-class background, are locked in secretly at maternity homes belonging to the adoption agencies as soon as they get to know that they are pregnant. At the maternity homes, they are persuaded to relinquish their children to save the honor of their families and in reality to feed the adoption agencies' need of a steady supply of children for overseas adoption. In other words, a combination of patriarchal attitudes and economic greed lies behind today's overseas adoption from Korea, and thus the rights of both women and children are completely ignored. "
