Will Adoption Work for Me & My Child?
You can talk to our attorneys, AT NO CHARGE, who are trained to listen well, so we can explore legal issues as well as the psychological and social issues of your situation. In this manner, we can anticipate your concerns and answer questions you may have about adoption.
We inquire about your medical history, including drug, alcohol, and tobacco use. (Please be honest with us, as it will help us to locate nonjudgmental Adoptive Families who will both welcome your child and be capable of parenting him or her.) We will also inquire about your social history, including your personal preferences, your marital history, support systems, budget needs, education, and other background information about you. We will discuss your financial needs and how these can be legally met.
We want to know what qualities you seek in the Adopting Family, and how much contact is desirable for you. For example, what role will education play in your child's life? How about religion? Will your child have siblings? What kind of neighborhood does the family live in?
Since 1980, we have worked with over 4,500 birth parents. Adoption can be a great solution but may not be the answer for you. We can certainly assist you in sorting things out and we are confident that our experience will serve you!
