Farmington Utah Adoption Case

I have been off and on following the case of Nikolas Thurnwald out in Utah.

His child was put up for adoption against his wishes and without his consent. Three years have gone by and NOW the lawyer is saying it would be mean to take the child away. Well...duh...it's been three years. It is mean.

But who is the mean one? Seems like the father tried to step up to the plate but was not allowed to stop the adoption.

I can't imagine the trauma of seperating this child from the only family they know after 3 years....terrible. But why was this ever allowed to happen in the first place.

I guess that's my hangup...why is adoption a shady back door, sneaky thing? It should be a celebration...not something done in the shadows.

Oh what a tangled web....
