[quote=Anonymous]My husband and I are pursuing domestic adoption. A birth father who has decided to place his daughter (2 and a half years old) for adoption has contacted us. The daughter's mother has been deemed unfit to care for little girl and the father has full custody. The mother is addicted to narcotics and when the daughter was born she had drugs in her system (and she was born 1 month premature at about 4lbs). The father says the daughter does not display any signs of disability/damage as a result of drug exposure. She seems like an sweet, lovely little girl and my husband and I are very interested in adopting her. Does anyone have any experience with a similar situation? Any guidance on what we should know or look into as we move forward? Many thanks! [/quote]
