Hugh Jackman and Wife Push for More Ausie Adoptions

Hugh Jackman and his wife, actress Deborah-Lee Furness have adopted two children and think that everyone should be able to adopt as many children as they like with no barriers to them...as if that what was adoption was about: filling a demand!

Furness is appalled that  "Australia has the lowest adoption rate in the developed world ... 270 last year including local (adoptions)."  However, i do not see anywhere that she mentions any children languishing, waiting for homes and families.

So, basically she is saying: wouldn't it be so much better to inflict the pain of family separation on far more individuals!

Read her rant that Australian family preservation practices are racist here.

(Then come back and share your reactions here.)
