Well, the point is rather than when you apply to be adoptive parents (at least as I understand it) you might get either a baby or a 12 year old.
And my original point was I suspected that there was more to this than the couples diet, but this is what they CHOOSE to blame.
I remember reading about McDonalds being sued because a woman burned herself with a cup of hot coffee. "well, thats ridiculous" I thought, but when I read into it the woman had spilled burning coffee on herself, rushed into the store and been refused access to the bathroom to get cold water on the burn and get her jeans off - causing the burn to be worse than it should have been. In light of this info, it seemed quite right they were sued.
I suspect it is the same here. The decision to allow people to adopt if a complex measure of risk against need... I suspect the couple is bringing up one probably minor point. I repeat that I find their sense of entitlement to me more troubling than the stance of the local authorities of Crete on vegetarianism.
