Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Research shows that children with biological parents who have criminal records are at higher risk for delinquent behavior, regardless of their adoptive parents' criminal history. When both sets of parents have criminal records, this risk is compounded. Therefore, in a situation where both biological and adopted parents are criminals, the adopted child would be most likely to commit criminal activity.
