Most adopted children in U.S. healthy, study finds
U.S. data on adopted children showed 85% were in excellent or very good health, according to their parents, and 88% of those age 6 and older had positive social behaviors. However, the study, written by the HHS and nonpartisan research group Child Trends, also found adopted children were more likely to have been diagnosed with depression, ADHD or a behavioral disorder and 54% had some special health care need.  National Public Radio (11/30)
