[quote=Anonymous]I am a PP. We have adopted an older child and are well-connected with the older child adoption community in our city. A large percentage of the kids in our adoption community do not end up attending or graduating from 4-year colleges. Many find that school is a struggle. They did not have the prenatal and early childhood experiences of their peers, and are delayed in academic and non-academic ways. They are good kids, who have had a crummy early life, and many of them will pursue alternative ways to achieve an education and contribute to society. College expenses may or may not be an issue. Certainly college expenses should not be a reason to not adopt an older child. [/quote]
