I'm considering adoption for my child because i am not financially responsible an in college! plus the father of this child is not talking to me an is back with his ex girlfriend! so i was put in a spot where i had no choice but to give my child to more responsible, an loving hands, i chose to have a open adoption, the child has a right to know who i am an has a right to know who its father is as well! it helps reassure that the child has a background for medical an ethnical questions! it also helps the child understand the type of family it has . An that the selfless act i pursued by giving an infertile couple a baby the longed for an a better life for my child! yet i do not plan to interviene many times in the child's life i wish to let the child grow an live by the rules an teachings an values of its adoptive parents , an to let the child know that i am still out there if he/or she ever needs me for any reason in his/or her lifetime!
I have adopted children and I think open adoption is better for the child because they don't have to go through all of the emotional trauma that children in closed adoptions have to go through. If they have a question about the biological family, they can call or write and ask. In our situation, they also know they weren't stolen or something because the birth mom and I have both told them that this was the best thing for them. They also know they weren't "given away" because they were bad or unloved. I guess, in a nutshell, a child can never have too many people who love them.

Can a birth mother have the right to visit her adoptid child?
Only if you have open adoption and this is decided between you and the parents. Legally you no longer have any rights to the child. When the child is adult you can try contacting her/him to see if they are interested but as long as he/she is a minor you can not contact them. It would be breaking the adoption agreement you signed.
