Once a child is adopted, can he or she be un-adopted?
Before I even begin, this is out of pure curiosity. I am too young to even be thinking of this and I don't know anyone who is looking to adopt.
If someone adopts a child, is it possible for them to un-adopt the child?
I say this because a lot of children in such situations have come from dysfunctional families before the adoption. If the child seems normal when the parents adopt him or her and then turns out to be too much of a handful, is there a certain amount of days allowed for them to try out the new family with it's new family member? I also know that as the years go by, the child may show characteristics from a past dysfunctional home that they didn't exhibit before--some being severe, I'm sure. Surely there are some sort of guidelines adoptive parents can go by in case of such an incident?
I know adopting is not like purchasing an item from WalMart. I know you can't just turn around and say, "This kid doesn't fit right!" after the adoption, but I was wondering if something could be done in severe cases.
Anyway, does anyone know anything about what I'm questioning? Thanks for any information!

you can "un-adopt" a child but of has to be before a certain amount of time.but they try to make sure that you know everything that is going on with the child and see if you can handle it

I don't know how it would work with an
infant. I'm going to guess that just
like any normal child you would have,
any future problems you would just
have to deal with.
As far as older children. I believe
they start out as foster children
most of the time. Plenty of time is
given before adoption to make sure
everyone gets along ok.
I think once the adoption is final
you can't just take a child back. :)
