解析：

(1)	许多孩子和养父母在一起要比和亲生父母在一起健康、开心的多，这并不是一个秘密。对于那些在家里受亲生父母虐待的孩子而言尤其如此(true)，因为(because)法律盲目认为生理上的父母会更好。本句为对比句。可参照下句It's also true of children…because of…。
(2)	表原因，解释见上。
(3)	同样，对于那些在收养家庭中多年遭受(suffer)痛苦的孩子们来说也是如此，因为他们的养父母不能或者不愿意照顾他们，但是又拒绝(refuse)放弃监护权。
(4)	同样，对于那些在收养家庭中多年遭受(suffer)痛苦的孩子们来说也是如此，因为他们的养父母不能或者不愿意照顾他们，但是又拒绝(refuse)放弃监护权。
(5)	14岁的Kimberly不适合(fits)上述两种情况。
(6)	Kimberly的判例对属于上述两种情况的孩子而言最终(eventually)是有所帮助的。
(7)	Kimberly向来是她的养父与从未和她一起生活过的亲生父母争夺监护权的对象或目标(object)。
(8)	法官裁决(ruled)Kimberly可以继续与其唯一熟悉的养父生活在一起，驳回亲生父母对Kimberly监护权的要求(claim)。
(9)	法官裁决(ruled)Kimberly可以继续与其唯一熟悉的养父生活在一起，驳回亲生父母对Kimberly监护权的要求(claim)。
(10)	根据本句后的baby可判断此处为birth。句意：Kimberly出生后不久就被抱错。
(11)	既然是mistakenly switched“被交叉抱错”，那么与之回家的自然是wrong parents，当然不会是亲生父母了。
(12)	另外一个小孩在1988年生病夭折。医学测试表明(showed)这个小孩不是Kimberly亲生父母的孩子，Kimberly才是。Kimberly亲生父母由此与其养父展开了一场争夺监护权的斗争(battle)。
(13)	另外一个小孩在1988年生病夭折。医学测试表明(showed)这个小孩不是Kimberly亲生父母的孩子，Kimberly才是。Kimberly亲生父母由此与其养父展开了一场争夺监护权的斗争(battle)。
(14)	最后双方达成协议(agreed)，养父保留监护权，亲生父母有探望(visiting)权。
(15)	最后双方达成协议(agreed)，养父保留监护权，亲生父母有探望(visiting)权。
(16)	但养父若认为亲生父母的探望使Kimberly受到了伤害(harmed)，则该权利终止。
(17)	把Kimberly留给(leave)她的养父引起了激烈的讨论。
(18)	法官明确地说，Kimberly也有权为了(on)自己的利益提起诉讼(比如，假设在亲生父母的经济状况远好于养父的情况下)。on one's behalf为……的利益，代表。
(19)	Kimberly并不仅仅(more than)是其亲生父母的的私有财产。more than不仅仅，no more than仅仅，not more than不超过；至多；不比……更，less than小于；少于；不超过；不到；决不；毫不。
(20)	血缘关系并不意味着亲生父母可以剥夺孩子全部的权利(rights)。 　　本文讲述了被抱错的孩子Kimberly的养父和她亲生父母为她而争夺监护权的故事。目的主要是要告诉父母必须对孩子的健康成长负责，无论是养父母，还是亲生父母必须让孩子健康快乐地成长。
