The Fifth Element & Izzy on Halloween.
Holding hands. Playing and growing together. Two peas in a pod.
November is National Adoption Month. We have many kids on our block but last year we had a little Christmas miracle. Izzy came to our ‘hood right making us believe that Santa can deliver early and prayers know no bounds. Our whole neighborhood has watched her grow this past year and it is in part to the wonderful thing that is adoption.
Placing a baby for adoption can be a difficult decision, but it is an option that many women and couples choose for various reasons. It involves a legal process where the biological parent(s) voluntarily give up their parental rights, placing baby for adoption, and transfer them to an adoptive family. There are different types of adoption, including open, semi-open, and closed, which offer varying degrees of contact and communication between the birth family and the adoptive family. Working with an adoption agency or attorney can provide support and guidance throughout the process. It’s important to carefully consider all options and make the best decision for yourself and your child.
Deciding to place a baby for adoption is a complex and emotional decision that requires careful consideration. While the process of placing a baby for adoption can be overwhelming, it is important to know that there are resources available to guide you through every step of the way. From choosing the right child adoption agency to navigating the legal aspects of adoption, there are professionals who can provide support and guidance. It is also important to consider your emotional well-being and seek counseling to help you cope with the decision and the aftermath. Ultimately, placing a baby for adoption can provide a loving and stable home for your child, while also giving you the opportunity to make a positive impact on a family’s life.
There are many kids looking for homes. About 26,000 are from ages 8-12 and are in foster care being taken care of their foster parent. To find out more about how you could help or pass on this information visit AdoptUSKids.
