Wow, who knew this was even a thing? Apparently, it goes on enough for Wisconsin to pass a bill banning the practice in that state.

Wisconsin has passed a first-in-the-nation law that prevents parents from handing over custody of their adopted children without judicial approval
Wisconsin’s Gov. Scott Walker signed a bill into law on Wednesday aimed at limiting private custody transfers of their unwanted adopted children following a disturbing report that detailed the unregulated trade of adopted minors in the state.
The legislation is a national first and was launched following a five-part Reuters investigation into the practice of “re-homing children.â€

Quote
KIEL, Wisconsin – Todd and Melissa Puchalla struggled for more than two years to raise Quita, the troubled teenager they'd adopted from Liberia. When they decided to give her up, they found new parents to take her in less than two days – by posting an ad on the Internet.
Nicole and Calvin Eason, an Illinois couple in their 30s, saw the ad and a picture of the smiling 16-year-old. They were eager to take Quita, even though the ad warned that she had been diagnosed with severe health and behavioral problems. In emails, Nicole Eason assured Melissa Puchalla that she could handle the girl.
"People that are around me think I am awesome with kids," Eason wrote.
A few weeks later, on Oct. 4, 2008, the Puchallas drove six hours from their Wisconsin home to Westville, Illinois. The handoff took place at the Country Aire Mobile Home Park, where the Easons lived in a trailer.
No attorneys or child welfare officials came with them. The Puchallas simply signed a notarized statement declaring these virtual strangers to be Quita's guardians. The visit lasted just a few hours. It was the first and the last time the couples would meet.
To Melissa Puchalla, the Easons "seemed wonderful." Had she vetted them more closely, she might have discovered what Reuters would learn:
• Child welfare authorities had taken away both of Nicole Eason's biological children years earlier. After a sheriff's deputy helped remove the Easons' second child, a newborn baby boy, the deputy wrote in his report that the "parents have severe psychiatric problems as well with violent tendencies."
• The Easons each had been accused by children they were babysitting of sexual abuse, police reports show. They say they did nothing wrong, and neither was charged.
• The only official document attesting to their parenting skills – one purportedly drafted by a social worker who had inspected the Easons' home – was fake, created by the Easons themselves.

Yeah - don't dump them on MY lawn!!!
Which conjures up a horrific scenario -
You, CF Person, (Even better if you're female, 'cause "nurturing" you know
eyes2 ) - Live all by yourself in a Single Family home ~
They - put your Tin Foil Hat on, and break out that old raggedy copy of The Handmaid's Tale ~
They might start shoving them upon you. Dropping them off on your door step. YOU DO! have the resources - You Selfish Yuppy, YOU!
And strangely enough, The Infertiles clamoring for MOAR adoption - don't want these kids, no - they only want the Specific Behbeh of their choice.
Which is why some of those in this camp want to outlaw abortion - just like the flak over the Twinkie Factory shutting down, they don't want their preferred supply of baybays being cut off.
Older Asshole Kids With Issues? Oh GAWD NO.
Because, while they do care - they care so very much - and are full of Nurturance and all that - they can only take *specific* *fresh* Baybees!
And HOW DARE YOU! Insinuate ONE bad thing about them, or offer any neutral advice - because Other Cows CAN have THEIR OWN Baybees! - therefor YOU are some kind of Nazi or something.

My guess is the adopting parents who no longer want their second-hand child don't give much of a fuck who they give the kid to when the novelty has worn off. So it doesn't surprise me that the first takers on this deal were a couple of psychotic pedophiles. Who the fuck else would want a mentally troubled teenager besides a pair of winners like the Easons? A tard would be less likely to rat them out after they "handle" her.
I wonder why the adopting parents (the ones who legally adopted her) didn't just give her to the state. Too much red tape? Would take too long to get rid of her? Worried what people would think of them? Who were the Puchallas trying to impress by adopting a third-world retard?
Of course the third-hand family was putting on the hog when the second-hand parents were delivering the package. I mean the Puchallas likely would have left the girl there anyway if the Easons acted like assholes because who wants to drive six hours back to Wisconsin with a violent tard in the backseat? I do wonder if there is ever money involved. Like do the new owners pay for the child? If the new owner is a pedo, I imagine they're more than happy to fork over some dough for a brand new set of orifices.
But really, it took the state this long and hundreds of online child trades to notice this shit? I thought it was already illegal to give your kids to strangers in a back-alley deal, but the new law certainly won't stop it from happening. I mean it's a cute thought to entertain, but when you put a law in front of determined people, they find ways around it or learn to conduct their affairs a little more quietly.

Holy shite. I guess I shouldn't be surprised that such things go on, but even cynical ol' me is stunned. Thank God Gov. Walker signed this, one of the few decent things the man has done here. But yeah, people will still try to get around the law once the novelty of an adopted child wears off.

I declare everyone involved in this case a heartless, sick fuck. Both the pedos and the idiots who thought signing a person over to strangers was a decent thing to do.|

This does not surprise me at all. And I agree. These so-called adoptive parents don’t give two fucks who they hand their kids over to, just as long as they can get them out of their hair. I’m surprised more paaarents don’t try this with their biological children.
Oh wait, they do!
“The boy turned 18 a few days ago. In an interview, his new foster mother said he is one of 10 children with special needs that she and her husband are raising.
She said he is often combative and uncommunicative. He once asked if he could attend a school for troubled children, she said, but she and her husband
insist on home-schooling him and don't believe in therapy for children. The couple declined to make the boy available for an interview.â€
First his cunt of a moo sends him off to a pedo, then his next home is with a couple who, judging by the above quote, also don’t give a shit about his well-being. They don’t believe in therapy for children? Home schooling? That’s a huge red flag right there.
Funny how they declined to make the kid available for an interview. Something’s going on here.
That kid is fucked. Be proud of yourself, moo. I can only hope that if he ever decides to lash out at society, he goes after the people who hurt him and not some innocent stranger.
And to think cf me is supposed to be teh ebil child hater. I fucking cried reading this. I may not be fond of children, but no child, adult, dog, goat, whatever deserves this.
This is one of the many reasons I’m for abortion. Better it be sucked out while it’s still a clump of cells than be born unwanted and spend the rest of its life being abused and neglected.

Half of the problem is with social workers and CPS costantly dowplayning the adoptee's issues.
I have read several stories of people who adopted a child they thought allright and then ended up with a nightmare, kids that willfully destroys their new parents lives and their home, even to the point of attacking them and/or the other children. CPS usually know this, but doens't say it because if the kid is taken in in a family, it is not anymore their problems. And when the adopters ask for help, they usually find none.
Those kids are downright dangerous, and, since people aren't told that, they don't know how to cope. People rarely tell the truth about either adoption or birthing kids, for much the same reasons I guess.

Turns out breeders treat their adopted kids the same way they treat their adopted animals. Not cute anymore? Not getting sufficient udder rubs now that the newness has worn off? Just throw it out. Any old stranger will do.
Not surprising, sadly.
Unfortunately, I don't know if forcing them to stay with "parents" who obviously don't give a fuck is any better, necessarily. Better than them winding up in a pedo ring for sure, but there needs to be some kind of system to get them away from the original breeders too.

Don't know if you picked up of this, but to judge from a number of such stories, the "rehoming" of adopted kyds seems to be predominantly among fundie types.
We've noted here before that those people want to force women to have children, but don't care what happens to the kids after they're born. To demonstrate this, disproportionately fewer adoptive parents are fundies. It seems that among those fundies who do bother to adopt, they are much more prone to dump the adoptees on others later.

The next time if pro lifers bitched about giving the fetuses a chance to 'live', I'll show them this.
What the fuck do they assume that the fetuses will be adopted safety? There is no guarantee that they'll go to the safer homes and even if they do, what happens if they don't become what the breeders wanted? They'll re-home the adopted kids like what the Easons's did. This is why I support abortion so they don't have to suffer the abuse like what the kids have to go through.

Fundies don't care one bit about what becomes of the fetuses they "save." They think they're doing some kind of miracle work by keeping women away from abortion, but where are they when those unwanted kids need to be saved from a violent biological parent who takes her resentment out on the child? Or when a "saved" fetus is adopted and sold to a couple of pedos like in this story? Or when an older "saved" fetus goes to a foster home where they get abused and neglected while the bio-kids are treated like royalty? They sure aren't interested in saving the born, sentient, grown fetuses from things that actually hurt like being beaten or raped. In fact, some of the fundies might be doing the abusing and raping.
But hey, as long as they keep them pesky wimmins in their place, it's worth it for a few thousand kids to die at the hands of violent parents or grow up messed-up because they managed to survive being abused.

Annnd, of course there was an episode of Law & Order: SVU that covered this topic. It would have been an interesting episode if the viewer had not been pummeled over the head with the issue of Olivia Benson developing baby rabies (seriously, the episode ended with an ominous "tick tock" sound directed toward Benson).
Anyway, the focus was on a child porn producing husband and wife team who passed themselves off as a decent, religious, "we love kids" couple. All it took was a few faked documents and an earnest smile, and the kids were their's. Made it look horribly easy.

She'll get the rabies?! God dammit! I love L&O: SVU and her character. I guess S15 (over here S14 just ended) will be a bit bleh.
I don't doubt there are people capable of doing things like that. It's fine as long as it fits in their 'perfect picture'. If the changes are not to their liking, they want to return it like items bought on a store. They seem to forget they are living things...
This also applies to pets.

I have done a lot of reading on this topic, since my two nieces are adopted (PNB Sister and BIL). It appears that the Fundamentalists in the US have taken it on as a mission from God to bring orphans from other countries and adopt them into "Christian" families. Many of these families say they feel "called" to adopt kid after kid after kid; frequently after having several of their own DNA replicants already. Most kids who have languished in an orphanage have psychological issues to be worked out, the longer the child has been there, the more issues they might have. But the Fundies don't believe in getting Psychologists or Psychiatrists to help with this, they feel that prayer will do the trick. If not prayer then do not spare that rod!!! There have been many cases of these kids being literally tortured to death with Christian Fundamentalist "discipline" for suffering the after effects of being an orphan thrust into a whole new culture.
These Fundies will end up with "families" so large the kids were probably better off in the orphanage they came from. And when someone upsets the apple cart, and the parents don't beat them to death, they go online to "re-home" them to another mega family, or pedo, whatever.

And these are the same people that probably pissed and moaned about needing to adopt, having to have that baby, and flushing thousands of dollars down the drain in the process.
Now it's gonna be a house and sex slave for whichever pervert contacts the "parents" first.
Didn't these wanna-parents do such a SELFLESS thing for this poor underprivileged child?
