Foster mom trying to unadopt son

No, why?

I guess if the parent was fooled or lied to about the boy's behavior during the adoption stage then I guess she has the right to give him back. Of course, the parent also needs to protect her other kids and keeping him wouldn't really solve the problem. In the first place, children with unresolved problems like this should not be allowed to leave the institution until it's sure that they are better. It's not bad to allow children to be adopted with a history like this one since they definitely need more love and guidance, but of course, before they allow parents to adopt children with behavioral background like this, they should make sure first that the child is already well because they could cause much worse problems for the family adopting him as well as for the adopted child.

She may have done all she could to get him help.. We do not know the full story and history.. However, yes the boy should be removed from the home from sure... sent to corrections or rehab, but I know that rehab and corrections does not always work, Many of these people can NOT be helped, as they grew up doing this, and in their mind that is totally normal to do and they can not change that mind frame or get out of it even if they wanted to like any other bad habit... Yes, Serious help needed, but I disagree with people who are judging the mother for trying to unadopt.. If a person is in foster care and adopts and takes in more children they can not do that if a molestor is in there home.. no matter their age, the child does this they are removed... sent to get help then replaced.. and they do not always tell the new parents their history as they try to give the child a fresh clean chance, as many times these children did it out of not knowing how wrong it was as it was done to them... But on the other hand the parents at least should be warned and explained they are trying to give a fresh start but also able to watch and keep on eye out for their other children's safety... - DNatureofDTrain

I read about this back a few months ago. The woman was never told when she adopted the child that he had major problems. I'm not talking little ones like being afraid of the dark but major emotional problems. He'd been violent most of his life and had been institutionalized numerous times because of it. None of this was told to her. Personally the state was wrong to do that to her. They should have let her know so she could have gotten him the help he needed before he molested those two girls. By them not doing so they are criminally negligent. I can understand why the woman want's to unadopt him. Yes she took him in but she took him in without all the facts. That is a big difference. She had no knowledge of the situation and now should not be held responsible for him.
