									<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><span class="atwho-inserted"><a class='bp-suggestions-mention' href='https://gcaforums.com/members/brandon/' rel="nofollow">@Rambo</a></span> I am not sure why you would be appalled by my family adopting children to sponsor on the giving tree. That seems odd and unkind. </p>
<p></p>
<p>The point of my post is we are going to make a point of giving, supporting and spreading kindness. Hopefully others will as well. </p>
