I think there could be more depth to it. For example, irl you need to go through several checks from social workers and adoption agents before adopting a child. In the game, you leave and go get them and that's it. There's no acknowledgement of a former guardian at all which makes it seem weird. Heck, for buying pets with C&D, you have someone come to your house to bring you the animal. Yet for a child, you just leave out and come back with them with no other human involved. It's pretty backwards. For a video game it's fine, but I wouldn't be opposed to it getting more depth put into it.
