Interesting International Facts: adoption

Did you know?

That in Australia you cannot adopt if you are overweight. I met someone over lunch recently who is a single woman looking to adopt. she is Australian, but living, working...and adopting locally. She said she was interested in adopting from Australia, but because she was overweight she couldn't. I've never heard of such a rule. I've heard about rules regarding age or marital status, but weight? that's a new one.

What do you think, should someone who is overweight be allowed to adopt a child?
