Adoption of mentally impaired babies

RE: Adoption of mentally impaired babies
(January 10, 2017 at 11:26 am)Catholic_Lady Wrote: Let me also say that this pregnant couple has the financial means and plenty of support to take care of a mentally impaired child. But the reason they want to put their child up for adoption is because they feel like emotionally/mentally they just wouldn't be able to handle the grief and heartache that would come from seeing their child struggle through life.   

In this case I'd say it's a very morally good thing to put them up for adoption provided that the adopted parents are emotionally and mentally able to handle the child.

Just whatever is better for the child, really. If the natural birth parents can't handle their child then they shouldn't be raising them.
