No Ron, that's not what I was looking for, but thank you.

But I wonder if your friend would have appreciated adopting from a local 
young couple and allowed that young couple to be a part of their new 
family. The literature likens it to an extra set of in-laws and extended 
family.

Just curious since the members here seem to have a ton of experience on a 
huge variety of experiences.
