Who Adopts a Rejected Kid? - Page 1 - The Daily Beast

Who Adopts a Rejected Kid? - Page 1 - The Daily Beast

Rather difficult to read story about families that adopt older children who have problems. The message is not that the woman who put her adopted son on a plane back to Russia was right, but that sometimes the situations are difficult for everybody. And sometimes the best thing for everybody, including, sometimes especially, the child herself is that the child be put in a different home. Some children require more expertise/help/time than is available at a given home. And the whole adoption angle adds even more difficulty - especially for children that have been given up previously. Sometimes given up on more than once or twice.
