Children can be relinquished for adoption at any age, and even adults can be adopted, although that usually has little to do with parental surrender. In the case of pre-birth matching of adoptive parents and a woman making an adoption plan, the time between birth and legal termination of rights (TPR) for birth parents varies from state to state. A lot of babies are placed for adoption when they are newborns, right at the hospital. Most states have a period of time (for instance, 48 hours) after the birth of the baby in which the birth mother has to wait before she can sign the relinquishment papers. The adoptive parents can then leave the hospital with the baby.

Adoption is final so no, no matter how old they are. The only time you can ever get your child back is if you change your mind within 30 days of the closure of the adoption date. If you changed your mind and have a hard time dealing with it seek counseling. This is a hard issue to deal with by yourself.

In Missouri, if you have not had contact with the child for at least six months, even when being denied access, you will not even be notified of the adoption.
