What kind of birth mother is not a high risk for non relinquishment?
If adoption agencies should start turning away pregnant unemployed teenagers, what kind of birth mothers should they not be turning away? Responsible adults with jobs?
Statistically speaking there are certain characteristics, social issues, family demographics, and so forth which increase the likelihood of a birthmother changing her mind, disrupting an adoption, and/or displaying post - placement behavioural issues.

Adoptive parents could possibly avoid 'placement failure' by altering their match criteria accordingly. I have great sympathy for both sides, especially this sweet babe who's life was over before it even really began.
