Quote:the child of the person or persons so adopting him.... shall be entitled to all the rights and privileges, and subject to all the obligations, of a child of such person or persons born in lawful wedlock. An adopted person is the child of an adopting parent, and as such, the adopting parent shall be entitled to testify in all cases civil and criminal, as if the adopted child was born of the adopting parent in lawful wedlock.ref so the child isn't a ward of the state after adoption.
And the problem with your argument is that they don't get to adopt in the first place so these guidelines you brought up don't really mean anything. They are after the fact. Also, in this particular instance we are talking about foster care in which the child is still a ward of the state.
