Adoptive parents are taking on enormous responsibility both emotionally and financially. Quite frankly they need as much disclosure as possible about the child's background and health to assure the best fit and be prepared.

I was a sickly baby and after two sets of adoptive parents took me home they returned me to the orphanage because of a serious respiratory infection. But as they say the third time's a charm because my mom and dad adopted me and took me into their home where I was raised in a family full of love.
