Family Feud: To Adopt or Not to Adopt?
Our protagonist finds herself in a sticky situation when her younger sister’s parenting skills (or lack thereof) threaten to land her baby nephew in the foster care system.

But with a comfortable life and a one-child policy in place, will she be willing to take on the responsibility of raising her sister’s child? Her mother’s guilt trip only adds fuel to the fire, leaving our heroine torn between her own happiness and the well-being of her nephew.
