On what grounds. Not in my case as it was unjust. You need to give a reason why you want to sue.

What happens if foster parents want to adopt the foster child?

If the child's parents are no longer in the legal picture, then there are steps to follow in order to adopt the child. Many foster children are in foster care while their parents get education, jobs and/or get off of drugs, so the child or children are not available for adoption.

Well. If that child or children has parents who are taking care of them then you have a very slim chance.

Foster care and adoption is not the same thing. Yes, you get to meet your adoptive parents before they adopt you. That is not always the case with foster care since if a child is abused for instance the foster families are ready to receive you in the middle of the night sometimes, when it's needed. Foster care is not meant to be permanent like adoption.

Why does my mom get money each month from the government for me being adopted Why did she get money from them when I was her foster kid?

When you were still a foster child the biological parents are still obligated to pay for your expenses. Many people have many foster children because they want to and because there is a need but that does not mean they would otherwise afford to have them all so they have to get their expenses paid. If you are adopted now there are financial assistance the parents can get when they adopt a foster child. This is because otherwise they would still look for a family for you if your mom could not afford to adopt you since when you adopt a child you are usually not getting a anything. This assistance is there to help children who are in good families to stay there - permanently.


Can you adopt your brother both your parents are dead you are 26 your brother is 13 He is currently living with you but social services have put him forward for adoption without consulting you.?

Even if social services put him forward for adoption, you should be the first consideration. Even as evil as they can seem sometimes, they do want to keep families together. Adoption is a long process, especially for someone who is not a family member. The best course of action is to contact or visit the social services offices, tell them YOU want to adopt your brother, and go from there. They do encourage that. If you hear something like, you aren't equipped to handle it, or whatever, ask them for help. Tell them you want to, and are willing to do what you have to do to adopt him. That may mean classes, it may mean counseling, but they will work with you.

Once adopted the child becomes a part of that family just as if they were born into it. If the adoptive parents die the socialworkers will ask the relatives and if they can not the child will go to foster care and up fpor adoption again. But the birth parents can never adopt the child back.


How do you persuade your parents to adopt a child for you?

If you're an only child...maybe they can think about it. If you have little/older brother/sister maybe they won't think about adoption. But if you truly want a baby bro/sis or just a new sibling in the house, maybe they can think about it.
