Dpen6,

RIGHT ON THE NOSE!! Wholeheartedly agree - closed adoption is this child's only hope of any kind of life: this is not the kind of original roots story, I would want any child to have to live with.
The child deserves committed loving parents willing to protect this child at all cost - even if that means not leaving any trace of an adoptive relationship. This is one story whish comes nowhere close to a child having the right to know: if anyone is in doubt, just ask yourself: is this the kind of family you would want to find out about your own life-I seriously doubt it.

There has to be some criminality in all of this whereby the parents responsible for this mess are held accountable... No?

Yes the child should come first - but will that actually happen?

This is no tragedy waiting to happen... it has happened and there is no quick fix!
