Expectant Parent Options
Choosing the right adoptive parents for your baby is one of the most important decisions you’ll ever make. Luckily, you will have plenty of options. It’s not out of the ordinary to be approached by five or ten prospective parents, including couples and single adoptive parents. There may be even more.
Adoption can be an excellent option for pregnant women who, for a variety of reasons, are unable to take on the responsibility of raising a child at this time in their lives. Many families have been created because a pregnant woman decided that the best choice for herself and her child was to ensure the child had a good home, a loving family, and a better life than she might otherwise have been able to provide. However, giving your child up for adoption can seem like a daunting and complex task. Here’s what you can expect as you consider adoption.
Making an adoption plan is a courageous and frightening decision. If you are thinking about or have made a decision to place your child for adoption you should be aware of some of your rights. An adoption attorney can provide you not only an overview of your options but can also explain your legal rights and options.
