There's no simple answer to that. For the adopted children, homes are just about always better than orphanages. And women still do get injured through pregnancy or birth. If you well and truly knew that would happen to you, then adoption would be better. And sometimes there are hereditary diseases and conditions which a responsible adult would prefer not to pass on to their children, again making adoption a sensible option. OTOH, many adopted kids go through a tough period in their (late) teens, struggling with their identity, why they were adopted, what life would have been it they'd stayed with their "real" parents, and things like that.

When you adopt someone can you get a birth certificate made?

This is a vital question. In New Zealand for example, two people merging their families, by formal adoption after their new marriage, may no longer be able to request the birth certificates of the children, because the new parents are not the birth parents! (After adoption.)This could affect the children's ability to claim citizenship via a parental trail.In the case known, the new partners knew of this klutz, and obtained the childrens birth certificates before the new marriage, and the subsequent adoptions proceeded OK.So get the birth certificate before adoption.

Can you rescind a adoption in Illinois?

While only an adoptive parent, and not an attorney or any legal representative- Rescinding an adoption is not easy in Illinois, practically impossible, and even harder since "Baby Richard" and the laws that were enacted because of that case. Birth parents must either sign papers in court in front of a judge to terminate their parental rights, or be proven unfit, before the adoption can even proceed. Once the adoption is final, court documents are impounded, birth certificates are changed, social security records are changed. While birth and adoptive parents can pursue whatever informal or documented "open" adoption procedures they choose, those procedures are not binding upon the adoptive parents. Once the adoption is final, the adoptive parents in Illinois are under no obligation to allow the birth parents or the birth families to have any contact with the adopted children whatsoever if they choose. Illinois is a closed adoption state. And that adoption is locked tighter than a safe! There have to be extremely good reasons to release the records from impound, and there have to be even better ones to pursue rescinding the adoption. Your best bet, as is the best bet of anybody pursuing adoption, is to find the best attorneys you can afford, pay the retainer, and see if you have a case to rescind the adoption. If the attorney you choose finds you do not, perhaps there are other ways to achieve what you want to achieve legally: A name change, having birth parents adopt an adult, etc.
