Thanks, brandontoh. I used underwhelming because the child is microcephalous.
before the page was even turned - yes, I see the value in that, may use it. Ta.
I use now in the final line because the poem is meant to be a rebuttal of those who aver that 7 is too old for adoption. By showing how the child is not 7 at all, developmentally, I hope to convince them of their error. Like a lawyer concluding his case! Didn't work.

Before criticising a person try walking a mile in their shoes. Then when you do criticise that person, you are a mile away.... and you have their shoes.
