[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]No, but be prepared for lots of issues and needing to foster before adopting. [/quote] LOTS OF ISSUES. A 3 year old is beyond critical brain development that would enable her/him to GOM secure attachments- if they were neglected - many foster kids were at minimum neglected emotionally. In the case of abuse the issues will be much worse depending on the type and severity of abuse. Some say younger kids are not impacted but this is a load of bull - their brains are neuroplastic AND there is still permanent damage from the abuse. Just be prepared. Under age 2 is ideal to adopt - infancy is the best.[/quote]
