[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I mean, this sounds bad but who really wants to raise a child with severe autism and RAD? Especially with 4 other children in the picture. I wouldn't. She did a video once about how expensive and time consuming his therapies were. If I could opt out of that, I would too. Would I actually give the kid back? Probably not but I'd want to, for sure.[/quote] Then why adopt a child with special needs? They knew he would have delays before even leaving for China. [/quote] +1 There's a perspective among some (white, Christian) adoptive parents that any home in the United States is better than any home in the child's country of origin. But that's not always true, and I think it's worth interrogating whether these folks did more harm than good by removing Huxley from his home culture, language, and whatever supports he could have received in a Chinese foster home (which is increasingly the model).
