I am sorry you are going through this. All children deserve love, and I would have to wonder if the ones asking why you want this child had all their children totally potty trained at 3 years. It is not uncommon for 3 year old not to be trained, or the parents trained to take the child as is often the case.
Then speech therapy, I volunteer at my kids elementary school, there are many kids with speech problems. My oldest had serious problems due to partial hearing loss (which was corrected). He was in speech therapy for years. Yes, it was time consuming, and expensive but he was my child. Your soon to be child deserves a home, and love. On a different note, my 11 year old just had his tonsils removed, now he talks like Mickey Mouse. He talks and people who do not know him give these looks, like "what is wrong with him?" Basically what I am saying is, if you love the child and he fits in the family as you say, ignore the others. In time those problems will be overcome. Good Luck, Teresa
