Why do women choose adoption?

Being a mom can be hard work, Babies are a 24/7 job. Once you become a mom you must put your baby first. Everyone’s situation is different, no adoption is the same. Some reasons we see women place their children for adoption are: They are unable to financially support a child, not in the right place to parent that they wish to be, did not plan the pregnancy, relationship with the biological father is not stable, jail sentence, not ready emotionally to parent, they just simply believe this isn’t the best decision for them and their child, and in some cases, rape.

Is placing a child irresponsible/selfish?

You need to plan for your child’s future. That is your responsibility. No part of looking into adoption is irresponsible or selfish. Become educated about your options and the consequences of those options. Devise a plan that is in the best interest of your child. Take time — this is not a decision that should be made on impulse. If you are not ready to be a parent or take responsibility for the care and growth of your child, you can still give your child the gift of life by choosing adoption.

Some people believe if they place their child for adoption, they don’t love their child. That is far from the truth, it is quite opposite in fact. It means that you are thinking of them and you love them so much to provide a better life than you might can give them at this time.

Are there any costs to me?

Absolutely not. Expectant mothers should never pay for anything. Adoptive parents are responsible for paying for everything including but not limited to: legal fees, medical bills, counseling, and other financial assistance.

In fact, state law allows for certain expenses to be paid for. Common expenses often include: rent, food, transportation, clothes, medical and legal costs. We will work with you to create a budget that assists you during your adoption plan and follows the
state guidelines.
