A member asked:

Are a lot of infants adopted the babies of drug users?

2 doctors weighed in across 2 answers

Yes: I do not know of the meaning of "a lot" but there are infants adopted whose mothers are drug users. This information is disclosed upfront so adopting parents have this information.

Some: Children are given for adoptions for many reasons. Some of the moms have issues with drug abuse.If you mean by "a lot", the majority, I do not think so.
