Being adopted, even under the best circumstances, can leave a lot of kids with feelings of abandonment, and then to be very much abandoned by your adoptive parents at eleven years old must be heartbreaking.

Idk what the circumstances were with his adoptive parents doing a safe haven drop but I hope karma gets them good. What a disgusting thing to do to a child that’s was already unwanted and abandoned.
