Hello, we are about to start looking into adoption as it looks like I have secondary infertility. I could also just be a bit too old as I’m early 40s.
Partners friend from work adopted a 1 year old about a year ago. She’s just had a letter saying that the birth mother is now challenging the adoption and she has been advised that the child back? I know that if you foster to adopt then there is a risk that the child will be taken away but I thought adoption is final. It’s really put my partner off adoption, he’s saying he doesn’t think he wants to go ahead with it anymore, if there’s a risk the child would be taken off us after a year.
Has anyone else experienced this?
