In some domestic adoption horror stories, the adoptees are placed in homes with substance - abusing parents. They are exposed to drugs and alcohol at a young age, which is extremely harmful to their development. Another aspect is when adoptees are forced to conform to extremely strict and often unreasonable religious or cultural practices that they may not be comfortable with, causing a great deal of internal conflict.
One more thing is that there are cases where the adoption process itself was corrupt. Some families were given children through unethical means, like bribing officials. And once the child was in the home, they were treated poorly. For example, the family might have adopted a child just to receive government benefits related to adoption, but had no real intention of providing a loving home.

There are cases where adoptees are used as a source of free labor. They are made to work long hours in the house or on family farms without proper rest or care.

They are not allowed to have friends or participate in normal social activities, which can have a severe impact on their mental and emotional development.
