I think it's worthwhile to try to get as close to "ideal" as possible I think that's what they did. I don't know if it's still around, BTW. This was in the 70s. You mention taking into account the needs of the birth-mother and I agree with you on that. I think this 90 day deal does that. It also seems a good way to protect the adoptive parents. I know, at least with my parents, how crushed they would have been if they'd had me for 63 days and then had to give me back. Once I was there, it was guaranteed I was there to stay.
