Proposed merge from Adrogation
[edit]Adrogation appears to be a relatively obscure historical form of adoption, and the line or so that we have on it could fit right into the history section here. BD2412 T 00:41, 30 July 2022 (UTC)
- As the article discusses the topic entirely within the context of ancient Rome, perhaps it would make more sense merged into adoption in ancient Rome. That would not preclude mentioning it here as well. The distinction from arrogation mentioned in the article could use some clarification, but that is another issue. P Aculeius (talk) 11:54, 30 July 2022 (UTC)
- Not remotly obscure, the subject has been extensivly discussed by historians, the article is just underdeveloped (like many others on Wikipedia, nothing unusual about that).★Trekker (talk) 22:08, 9 September 2022 (UTC)
- This article is mostly about modern adoption practices. Inappropriate to merge here. Merge it instead to adoption in ancient Rome, where it properly belongs. Removing the discussion template from the main page, it's been up since July. BastunĖġáḍβáś₮ŭŃ! 16:18, 23 October 2022 (UTC)
- Point taken, merged to Adoption in ancient Rome. BD2412 T 22:28, 29 December 2022 (UTC)

Abandonment is the main reason
[edit]Wars Famine is the main reason how parents provide to adopt children. VEHICLEFAN5500 (talk) 14:15, 4 October 2023 (UTC)
- Can I assume that English isn't your first language? Are you saying that wars and famine are the main reason why people adopt children? It absolutely isn't. The main reason is infertility in adoptive parents. Some of the reasons children are placed for adoption by natural parents or otherwise become adoptable include wars and famine. Abandonment isn't all that common. Poverty is a bigger cause. BastunĖġáḍβáś₮ŭŃ! 14:28, 4 October 2023 (UTC)
