Children with
problems need
foster homes
GODERICH—"It is easy to
find homes for fair, curly-
haired blue-eyed baby girls
without problems, but we do
want more people really inter-
ested in the child who hasprob-
lems. Won't you help us?"
In these words, Miss Clare
McGowan, local director of
Huron County Children's Aid
Society, appealed to the 37
members of Huron County
Council at their session in God-
erich last week.
She reported that the society
now has only six babies looking
for adoption homes, with 20
children on adoption probation.
One of the six babies is almost
a year old and a Roman Cath-
olic; another one of the six has
a physical handicap.
"We need more people want-
ing to adopt children who are
NOT the prettiest, healthiest,
best-adjusted little people,"
Miss McGowan declared."Every
child needs a good home wheth-
er he is adoptable or not. Some
children, so-called unadopt-
able, have become so loved
and wanted by their foster-par-
ents that adoption was a joyous
experience for all concerned."
The local director pointed
out that many handicapped
children can be adopted when
parents are found willing to ac-
cept and love them for their
own sakes and not for what the
child can give the adopting
family. "Not everyone can ac-
cept a handicapped child and
we must not blame them for
this, " she said. "It is far bet-
ter to be perfectly honest about
it from the beginning.
"Some adoption applicants
ask for a handicapped child.
There are different kinds of
handicaps besides mental and
physical. Sometimes, we have
no knowledge of the baby's fa-
ther. Sometimes, the child has
mixed racial blood -- partneg-
ro, Indian, or Oriental, etc.
Some communities cannot ac-
cept such a child. Particularly
from teen-age on, there are
social complications. Yet many
of these mixed-racial children
are our cleverest."
