On the subject of the family adopting 2 or 3 children each, wouldn't they have agreed this between them? If 8 of the children are adults there probably are only 5 children left to adopt. I'm no expert though but can't imagine the children would be given to family members- these children will have severe damage and I'd imagine they would need expertise in dealing with abused children, not family who are themselves from a family of abuse. Although Louise's sister does seem more capable than her but who knows? So sad.
