stop whining

ultimately the adoption agencies are baby finders. They have no other value. You can get an adoption lawyer to process the paperwork for you. State licensing agencies try to legitimize their functions by promoting and mandating their social work processes, but that is just BS. Can you deliver an infant?

When it comes to the transfer of a precious infant, you are going to have problematic issues. Mothers who feel guilty then suddenly claim coercion, foreign governments not being bribed well enough. Sometimes they will favor a new agency over another.
Sometimes governments will allow baby exporting to the US, then just as quickly stop it.
The infant railroad may proceed later, or not at all.
Sometimes agencies get caught in the middle of all this, intending to deliver a child after taking a fee, then finding themselves out of the loop.
I scanned this article after my wife mentioned it.
We adopted a child from this agency. He is probably gifted, we will know when he takes an IQ test next year. He is stunningly handsome, and a pure joy. Well, sometimes he's a devil, aren't they all?
We will always be grateful to this lady. If someone had a problem with her, I'm sure it had to do with the issues above. I am also certain that the matter can be resolved, unless people just want to be jackasses.
Those people shouldnt have kids.
I get annoyed because the state doesnt promote the people making an effort to find babies, and are quick to hang them.

i'm confused

At the end of you post it sounds as though you were happy with this agency. You are happy with your child and grateful to "this lady". So, then why did you rate the agency with only one star? Are you happy with them or not. The rest of your post is nothing but a complaint about international adoption. Your post is very confusing.
