  4. Amendment • 8th Amendment No Cruel and Unusual punishment We went with this amendment because, it fits into the good side of adoption. It fits into the fact that if people weren't able to conceive a baby, that they should be able to adopt because its not there fault they can't conceive, so if people were against adopting it would be a cruel punishment. We also went with this amendment because, it fits into the bad side of adoption. If you were a baby and as you got older you got abused as a young child, how can you help that? You can't because a certain person okayed it and thought that they were a great family that the child would be fine. In America there are way too many people getting hurt because of children ending up with the wrong families and to us that is cruel and unusual punishment.
