1 parent is still better than 0.


I'm thinking mostly from the POV of if we had more adopting families than orphans, which I know isn't actually the case.


It's not blanket-true that there are more adopting families than orphans. For healthy Caucasian newborns, demand outstrips supply by factors of 100 or more. For HIV+ African-American 13-year-olds, adoption is basically never going to happen.
