Watch Two A-Holes at an Adoption Agency.
First of all, I love SNL. Secondly, this is one of my favorite skits. Third, yes, I’d be annoyed if this was a skit portraying birth parents poorly.
So, shoe’s on the other foot. Comments on YouTube include:
That was scary, I know people like that! Very scary. Whats even scarier, is that they actually give people like that children…
I’m aware that SNL exists simply to poke fun at people/things/issues and paraody life. However, we rarely see adoptive parents stereotyped so negatively on national media. I want to know how real (as in, a couple who doesn’t embody the two in this sketch) adoptive parents would feel if they were constantly portrayed as uneducated, egotistical, money-slinging baby mongers ON A DAILY BASIS.
How would it feel?
