[QUOTE="meowbunny, post: 197461, member: 3626"] I do understand disrupting an adoption. Some people can handle the garbage that comes with our kids. Either we knew we were walking into a battle zone from the git go or so fell in love with our kids that it didn't matter. For others, the battle was too hard, too long with little hope that it would ever change. So, I don't condemn those who disrupt. Even knowing about Reactive Attachment Disorder (RAD), Fetal Alcohol Effects (FAE), etc. doesn't quite give you an idea of the living hell you're walking into. Not knowing isn't going to change it, either. For you and me, the work of art is our child. It is the smile we see on occasion, the hug, the little things that show we have had some successes. For her, her art is a drawing of a child. Personally, I think our art is better. [/QUOTE]
