I’m wanting to know when you (or friend) made the decision to place a child for adoption, how did you do it? Agency, ads, friends, lawyer??? We are wanting to adopt again, and are wondering how to go about searching for a child.
(We did everything legally, after being introduced to a friend of a friend through our Viagra Online attorney)
I asked this question to pregnant teens, because this is in the teen section, where I thought it would be read more, and where, quite frankly, teens spend more time on computers, and have more access to information than older women.
Usually, once you give birth, a social worker will come and see you in the hospital and ask if you want to give your child up for adoption.
There is a wonderful site that I found when I was looking into adoption. The people there are wonderful and really can help you with anything you may need. I will paste a link below. Best wishes to you!
a social worker will normally come
I’m not sure that this question is appropriate. Its not only pregnant teens who make adoption plans. Most of the birthmothers we have seen lately have been in their 20’s and even 30’s. In truth, the majority of teens who become pregnant unfortunately have abortions because they want to finish school, and many in the 17-20 range choose to parent, since this is now a socially acceptable practice.
If you are curious about adoption, get Adoption for Dummies, it will clear up a lot of questions you may have, and will explain the differences between agencies and lawyers. Agencies will also schedule meetings with you to answer your questions about the best way to go about it.
You may also contact me with questions, as we are in the middle of this process and have a lot of information and insight, if you wish.
there’s a new policy where you can drop off your baby (if it has recently been born) at a fire station and places like that, and the people cant ask you anything….they just have to take the baby
I dont think adoption is the best option but if you did want to do it then you just go to socia, services and say you wanna put it up for adoption though you should consider keeping it, take responsabilty
