Caution: ADOPTION HUMOR AHEAD

Warning: Those without a sense of humor please click delete button immediately and read no further!

Those who have a slightly sick, twisted, demented, or simply satirical sense of humor and can laugh at the absurdities of adoption may enjoy some of the adoption cartoons created by Mirjam Visker.  Mirjam's Facebpook profile lists her as being a member of:
Stop abusing adoptees!, Adoption Angels Network, Friends of People Serving Girls At Risk, The dark side of international adoption, PLAN ANGEL
Mirjam, from The Netherlands, is perhaps the new incarnation of a longtime friend of the adoption reform movement, Charles Filius, self described s "one proud bastard."

Even Adoption Nation had a cartoon that poked fun at adoption:

If you can't read it, it says: "OH, I'm sorry...You cound't adopt"

Other cartoonisists who have enjoyed laughing with or at adoption inlcude:

Well, Hallelujah! What a relief! Personally, I'd rather be a bit jaded than lose my ability to laugh at myself. When my health was at a low point, I discovered of cartoons about people with disabilities!
