Yes, there are family law attornies that specialize in adoption. It is often best to ask friends and family for a referal. The next step would be to make appointments with the lawyers to see which one best suites your needs.

Yes. But think about what you are doing because a adoption is nor reversible.

In order to adopt an Asian child, you will need to be paired up with an international adoption agency. There are many requirements that must be met that vary for each individual Asian country that your adoption counselor would be aware of.

That would be your own if you adopt a foster child.

Another Choice for Black Children Adoption Agency was created in 1995.

Yes, there are many. Contact any church or adoption agency and they usually can offer you information.

in the united states: no, the family/child care systems are state based, not federal.

Presumably because your adoptive parents wanted a child. If you want specific details you would need to ask them.

The fact at a child is really unhappy has nothing to do with whether that child can be adoped.

If a child has a family, the only way the child can be adopted is if all living parents agree in writing to permit it, or the child is removed by the state from the family because of child endangerment or something similar.

The only way to tell is if your parents have the adoption forms laying around.

if they terminated their rights, they're probably out of luck

The child is not genetically related to either parent.

Your legal guardian have to go to court and ask them to do this. As a minor you will then be put in foster care or group home until you are 18.

Well i think to tell a kid that he is adopted is when is is in his 13-18 years old

$150.00 to file the paperwork

Who would the "Opponents" be, those who don't believe in "adoption" as a whole? or those who only don't support "gay and lesbian" adoption?

I think that children should be kept with their families only using adoption as a very last alternative. If parenting cannot and should not be done, then legal guardianship should be the next step.

However, there are many foster children who need homes, and I think gay and lesbian's should be allowed to open their homes to foster children and youth. I do not believe adoption is a way to "build families" adoption should be about providing security to a child who needs it.

Some of my other friends in the adoptee community feel that a child deserves a mother and a father, since that's what they lost and I can understand the meaning behind that. If a child is born to those, the child should have them if looking into adoption for the best interests of the child. However, I haven't come to that whole conclusion yet, because I feel like the child should remain with them. That giving them a second set of mother and father isn't the same as their natural parents. Some children cannot go back to their natural parents due to abuse and neglect at which point the family is broken. I think if a gay / lesbian family has a home to offer in this instance, then by all means allow them to open their doors.

I don't support newborn / infant domestic adoptions or international adoptions for any parents so in my opinion for that, gay / lesbians shouldn't be allowed to adopt then either. Not because of their sexual preference but because the adoptions are so unethical and anti-adoptee.

Contact a local adoption agency. They can arrange prospective adoptive parents and meeting to discuss the options you have regarding the idea.

Well The child Might have been through alot. so they might be distant at first.if not forever. but if it is short time foster care...the worst is giving up a child you fall in love with. Any more questions? Email me at adopted.child.pjw@gmail.com

I do not know if there is or is not a website for this. However, I suggest asking your parents and explain why you are asking. They should respond honestly...

It definitely depends on the state what the complete price of an adoption would be. It also depends on if you choose to go with a lawyer to represent you, to go with an agency to find the child etc. A great non lawyer service can assist you in finding out your state requirements.

It depends on the age of the child, and other than that believe this would be handled on a case by case situation. When my husband adopted my daughter, the judge made it very clear she was now his child in every way, til death do they part. So from that I will say, an adopted or natural child makes no difference in the eyes of the law (In CA at least).


The following came from an attorney in Ohio regarding a noncustodial father who wanted to disown his 14 daughter who was being somewhat of a handful;

You are responsible, at a minimum, for your natural children until they reach the age of majority (18). Theoretically, he could voluntarily terminate his parental rights, but I doubt any court would accept such a surrender of rights because the purpose of termination is to protect children from unfit parents, not vice-versa.

Once they reach adulthood you would be legally able to disinherit your adopted adult child the same way you would a biological adult child.
