We don't know how free his choice was, but we have to honor it anyway. Free or not, it is his choice and his son.

Saying that the household where Elian was living would not qualify for adoptive or foster parentage is not slander, it is a statement of fact. Have you any idea how strict the rules governing adoptive and foster parentage are? The household had no married couple. Nobody in the household was gainfully employed. One member of the household had a record of hospitalization for stress, another had repeated DUI convictions. Any one of those factors would eliminate them from consideration if they applied to be foster or adoptive parents.
