That's AWFUL. And, unless you walk a mile in their shoes, you will never understand.

Feel bad for all involved.

So giving up on them is only something you do with the adopted kid that’s not really yours. Got it.

She did get the kid help and get his needs met. She didn’t leave him at a fire station.

She adopted him in 2017 and rehomed him in 2020. Somebody else is hopefully making sure that Huxley's needs are met. Don't give this sad excuse of a "mother" credit for something she had no interest in doing herself.

I feel bad for the kids - Huxley who has lost his entire family and the children who have now witnessed their parents "rehome" their brother like an unwanted puppy.

Thus the spin of how incredibly dangerous he was. How else do you expect your kids to one day forgive you for giving their brother away?

Where you can give one of your kids away and then monetize your “pain” by selling discounted spa luxuries on Instagram. And some people are ok with that.

I mean I’ve obviously heard it is very difficult but I’ve never heard of someone giving their kid away because of it.

Well, there was just the case of the mom in Florida who drowned her kid because he had autism and she couldn’t take it. So people do worse than rehoming.

She didn't post a fake family life on youtube to make a living though did she?

Yes, depending on the child, it can be unbelievably hard. Life-ruining. But she elected to make that choice for herself and her family when she adopted-most people have the life thrust upon them.

And for the life of me, I cannot understand why. How she didn't understand the magnitude of what she was getting herself into. He has severe autism, had a stroke in utero and possible brain damage, and the trauma of having been in foster care/orphanage for the first part of his life and difficulty bonding. That is a LOT to take on and bless those who do and do it well, but it is not an easy thing to deal with and it is a lifelong commitment. Truly, likely lifelong because none of this says "out of the house living independently" at 18. If you end up with a child with these issues, you handle it as best you can, but she opted in! It has to really be a calling to do that and she acted like it was just adding one more to her brood.

Moving and having a new baby soon after adopting are big no no’s in that community.

The adoption agency should never have approved a new baby right after adoption. Most have rules against it or ask you to put your adoption on hold.

It doesn't work that way.

Many of us have been caregivers to SN kids and works, our parents or inlaws with dementia and other long term illnesses. I understand. I'd never give up my child.

She should have in 2017 and by now he may have had a fighting chance, now he is all over the Intnet as a problem child picture included!

Some agencies have strict rules against it, others don't.

How does that work? If you adopt and get pregnant they make you abort or take the adopted child away?
