The Swedish government is contemplating a ban on international adoptions, a move that has sparked significant debate.
The proposal, led by investigator Anna Singer, aims to address concerns over irregularities and child trafficking in adoption processes.
Alexander Forselius, an adoptee from Romania, expresses worry that such a ban could stigmatize adoptees and overlook the positive aspects of adoption.
He advocates for stricter regulations rather than a complete ban.
The commission's report, delayed until after the holidays, highlights the need for stronger oversight to prevent misconduct.
While the proposal aims to protect children's rights, it also raises concerns among adoptees about being perceived as victims.
