US parents try to 'unadopt' son

An American couple are reportedly trying to "unadopt" their 16-year-old son, saying the state did not tell them of his disturbing history of abuse.
According to the Washington Post, Helen and James Briggs adopted the boy six years ago, after Mrs Briggs - a foster mother - fell in love with him.

But in 2003 the boy, who cannot be named, sexually abused a six-year-old boy and a two-year-old girl.
Mrs Briggs said it was only then that she discovered his troubled past.

The newspaper said confidential files revealed that the boy's biological parents, who were alcohol and drug addicts, had physically abused him to the extent that his brain stem was damaged - hindering his ability to gauge the passage of time.

It is obvious she did not love him that much - now is the time for her to show love. He doesn't need to be rejected again he needs love, understanding and
guidance.

The report goes on however ....

She had wanted to bring the boy home after his sex offender treatment, following the case in 2003.
But then psychologists labelled him a sexual predator, meaning she would have to give up being a foster parent, which she sees as her livelihood, and would no longer be able to allow her three grandchildren in the house or keep a young girl she had fostered from birth.
