The kid is seven, had been yanked from his home country and plopped into a place he didn't know. He only knew institutions before he was adopted, so even a best case circumstance would have been difficult. It's up to the parents and their agency to be prepared for this type of situation and get whatever professional help is needed to get through it.

If you aren't prepared for a close to worse case scenario when you adopt you should really reexamine whether or not you're ready.
