The Stearns County Welfare Agency asked Caritas to accept guardianship of the baby when the mother terminated her parental rights.

Apparently, conception occurred prior to the couple knowing each other and her husband was convinced that he was not his child. They felt that there would be a good deal of resentment and hostility towards this child in the family and it would be unacceptable to them. They had spent much time weighing the pro's and con's of their decision but the deciding factors were parental opinion and what the community would think of them.
