My wife, asked me several times if I didn't mind adopting her 12 year old niece. At first, I refused, but finally, since I love her so much, pursued ways to bring her here from China. Now a year later with her niece in America, my wife is having doubts because her niece occasionally takes advantage of her. She is certainly a decent little girl from most standards - but personally - she and I don't jive that well. After putting our foot down and telling her we are ready to send her back, she suddenly turned over a new leaf and is being a good kid. However, my wife just gave birth to a baby girl and we are so busy loving and taking care of her that we both wonder whether it is better to send our niece back. Our niece is doing well in school and made a lot of friends and likes the baby. Personally, I wouldn't mind if she left so that I could devote my time to wife and baby. Yet, my wife wants to give her a chance but would easily send her back if I chose.
What would you do?
