Great to be back writing a post... the final post at that. I know, I will miss everyone but I am glad it will be finals week next week.
For my final post I wish to discuss this weeks presentations and the overall awesomeness of the class. I actually learned a lot from the presentations this week because when I compare other projects I realize the differences there are. For instance, I need to analyze my position more and create the opposing perspective on Powerlessness of Adoptees from Adoptive Parents. I noticed a lot of people did very well in this category and that I need to pick it up in this area. I also learned many about the any different perspectives one can take on the many topics on adoption ethics. I especially liked learning about the new adoption law being enforced by the South Korean government. I had no idea there was even going to be a law against adoption or even if there could be one.
The last ethics thought I never realized was a major thing experienced every day is what social workers for foster homes have to go through in order to keep track of every child's life. Even if they mess up once by not incorporating some of the child's rights it is frowned upon by society with the utmost negativity. But what if the worker doesn't have enough time and/or resources in order to keep track of every kid, what is supposed to happen then? Hire more workers? There are a lot of questions that go into social work for foster care.
Everything from this semester will be helpful as I walk away with the knowledge of ethics in adoption. I will actually even be able to incorporate them into my own life and my future decisions. I want to thank everyone for reading my blog and have a great future.
Sincerely,
Michael O.
