Adoption “Adoption isn't a birthmother's rejection but an unconditional love that inspires her to put herself last and do all she can for her baby.” This is quoted by Mary Hines, she is the mother of a child whom she adopted. Today I am going to tell you about adoption: types of adoption, pros/cons to adopt, cost of it, requirements for adoption, and who can adopt. First I am going to tell you about Domestic Adoption and the pros/cons of it. Domestic Adoption is when the birth mother, child and adoptive parents all live in the same country it is a domestic adoption and there may be some openness, depending on the birth parents. The pros/cons of Domestic Adoption are:
Pros:
1. It is more affordable due to reduced costs on travel and additional paperwork, even nonexistent if done through foster care. 2. There is a chance of getting a newborn; you may be matched up with a birth mom who has not yet given birth. 3. You will receive more detailed and accurate information about the biological parents medical information. 4. Most of the leg work is done by the adoption agency representatives and/or case workers, you will not be required to spend as much time on the adoption process.
Cons: 1. Requirements for domestic adoptions are quite strict and qualifications for adopting families are also high. 2. The biological mother may change her mind or unexpectedly refuse to give her child up for adoption. I believe there is a restriction on when she can do this, but that is not enough of a safeguard for most hopeful parents. 3. There are fewer children available for domestic adoption, especially if the adoptive parents prefer a child from a minority group.
International Adoption is when the adoptive parents live in a different country than the birth parents it is referred to as an international adoption and there is little or no contact between the parents. The pros/cons of International
