A lot of do-gooders from rich countries who think they're adopting poor babies are unwitting kidnappers.

The worst part is a lot of them gave up the kids to foster care in a couple years because they didn’t want them anymore. And some were so negligent that they didn’t do the child’s naturalization paperwork properly making them technically illegal immigrants and deported as adults.
