i have a dilemma
ok, it might not even be a dilemma seeing as i'm not sure if i can do anything about it. but, here goes:

i have these super fundie relatives that want to adopt. now, they've never done anything criminal, but there are a lot of people in our family that are pretty concerned. they've gone to washington to march against gay rights (and related issues), i'm pretty sure they've done similarly to women's rights and abortion. they already have three children of their own that they've taken out of school to be home schooled and have little to no outside social interaction. consequently, they're some of the worst behaved children i've come across (ages ranging from 11-5). additionally, they've (the three children, all girls) been told that they will not be allowed to date until their parents decide that it is time for them to wed. now, i suppose that i should be happy that their adopting some poor foreign orphan, but i fear for the poor kid.

now, should i mind my own business and just be happy that they're being charitable or should i tell somebody (who, i don't know)?
