My husband and I just (precisely 2 1/2 hrs ago) had to turn down a match for a little boy. Our DS is 3, will be 4 in November. The social worker called us today she had information on a little boy who turned out to be a year older than DS and came from an abusive background. He would also need Special Education.
The area we live in is too far from Special Ed facilities, I don't have the luxury of being a stay-home Mom and then there is the issue of adopting out of birth-order, namely "replacing" DS as the older one.
So we said no, but, oh, it broke my heart to do it. I am just so sad now.
