you know, every situation is different but with my nephews I'm glad we didn't push adoption thru, we didn't for a varaity of reasons although their mother wanted us to. But last year we had HUGE problems with one and I'm not sure how supportive the state would have been with resources if he were our child rather then part their child too. He no longer lives with us, although we retain the legal guardianship he's now in foster care with my parents.
