If you had put her up for adoption and the couple divorced within a year, how would you feel about that? (I’m not being sarcastic, I’m curious about how it would play out). There’s no guarantee that an adoptive couple will always be around or together, or that he’d even be a good father.
We’d feel bad about it, just as we would if the child were struck by a car crossing the street in his new neighbourhood at age eight.
But in life, we play the main chances, make the smart, responsible plays, and trust to God.
I’m sorry, for the one or two cases of extreme, my opinion doesn’t change.
There is a ton of screening with adoption. The birth mother could get hit by a bus too.

Interesting scenario...using the “single parents” can’t raise children hypothesis, kids could theoretically have numerous married parents over the course of their under-aged years.
hmmmmm, now that would make for some interesting extended families. Interesting...good catch.
