Native American roots trump in adoption battle over toddler

10. When I put my son up

the adoption also went across state lines, so we had to do 2 sets of consent papers- one for California, one for Nevada. Ca. had a much longer back-out period then Nv. did, but we were both informed that we were subject only to the shorter time period and really needed to think about it BEFORE we signed those papers. I'm wondering if this might be why they chose to abuse the Native American law in this way- if the waiting period might have expired.
Having seen, not to mention spent an hour signing, the mountains of paperwork required for adoption, I find the idea that he didn't know what he was signing a bit hard to swallow. it's a little hard to miss.
ETA: with months to decide before birth, I think a one-day back-out is plenty.
