But the single adoptive parent DOES have a child!  That is what adoption is all 
about.  You are correct that perhaps that single adoptive parent did not 
provide the sperm or egg for the child, but that person does have a child.

What happens when you add an adopted child to a single parent??  I just now 
tried, and Legacy Immediately removed the "Never married and had no children" 
and whited out the option on the individual screen.   It also added an 
"unknown" spouse!

Surely this should not be!  If ever you need to be able to say 1) "never 
married" and even 2) "had no children" it would be in that situation!!

Legacy, it seems to me, is sometimes rigid when there is no good reason for it.

Assume that ! means DSP for individuals with no marriage records.  Perhaps if 
an individual is linked to marriage records and all of the marriage records 
have the "had no children" box checked, then the "double S" symbol might be 
displayed with the ! after it to similarly indicate end-of-line.
