The fear of the birth parent even saying "I want my child back" is just as great as the fear of a judge allowing it. But they are often two separate fears. The legal fact that judges won't allow it does NOT take away the fear that the birth parent would ask for it anyway...
Yes, doing so would overstep boundaries. Yes, doing so would not be backed up by the court. But adoptive parents fear the birth parent saying it anyway.
Does that make sense?
