I weakly agree, if only for the reason that it sounds better than foster care and could well curb infanticide. On the other hand, in countries that have a problem with slavery it could weaken any injunction against slave trade, by the same argument as the one I support against infanticide. Or it could harm the sacredness of the child-parent bond in general. Well, on the whole it seems just about worth it to me, and no part of it even feels creepy or alarmingly counterintuitive.
Ah the rapid response prevented me from deleting my post (I wanted to do so because the points have been raised elsewhere and I didn't want to bloat the debate, not because I didn't think the post was relevant).
