Adoption is a process that allows a family to take responsibility for a child legally. There is more than one type of adoption plan to choose from. Here’s more adoption information to help you make a confident decision for your future.
The Upsides of Adoption
Adoption is one alternative to abortion. Maybe you’re not ready to parent, but you desire to give your child a great life. While adoption can be difficult and emotionally challenging, it is an option worthy of consideration.
Many women who choose adoption for their child find hope after an unplanned pregnancy because they know their child is safe in the home they chose and has a bright future.
Your Adoption Options
You have options when it comes to an adoption. Choose from open, semi-open, or closed. These different options give you, as the birth mother, the choice to be part of your child’s life.
Here is more information about the three types of adoption plans:
- Open adoption: With this plan, the birth mother can choose the child’s adoptive family and form a relationship with them. Communication can occur through phone calls, letters, or regular visits.
- Semi-open adoption: The birth mother has contact with the adoptive family, but all communication is carried out via a third party, like an adoption agency or attorney.
- Closed adoption: The most private plan, a closed adoption ensures that all identifying records are sealed. The birth mother remains anonymous, with no contact between her and the adoptive family.
