Many people adopt for various reasons. Whether you can’t have a baby yourself or want to brighten the lives of children who are in foster care, it’s a momentous occasion. One man adopted a girl that no one really seemed to want. However, he loved her and cared for her through adulthood with no problems. Suddenly, things changed, and he was confused beyond belief. What happened to make the child un-adoptable? Was it something she did, or was it something to do with her lineage?
