Domestic Adoption Types - How To Determine The Best One

Learning the difference between an adoptive child and a foster child is important for couples looking to adopt as are the facts regarding various kinds of adoption and the process involved in adoption.

The main types of adoption include domestic and International adoption; domestic refers to within your country and the latter, to adoption across International borders. We focus on the former type here: for US citizens, it is important to understand that once the procedure for adoption has been rightly followed through, the adoptive children will be deemed as having the same legal rights as biological children as they are regarded as equal members of the American family system.

Besides this, adoption can be further classified as Open, Semi-Open, Closed and Foster Care adoption. In the first case, it can be of 2 kinds: in the US, it refers to the process of adoption where the child's birth parent(s) is(are) involved in the process from start to finish and this includes meeting the couple looking to adopt to determine the caregiver's commitment to looking after their child. Many a time, this meeting between birth parents and prospective ones is conducted before the birth of the baby and in certain cases, both set of parents may decide to let the birth parents stay involved with the child, though carrying out non-parental roles e.g postal and telephonic communication or even in-person kinds.

This sort of arrangement is pretty common and allows the adopted person to access personal records too; the UK allows those below 18 this privilege.

The second scenario of semi-open adoption involves a limited interaction of the birth parent(s) in the life of the adopted child leave for the initial meeting at the time of processing the legal matters, after which stage, there is usually no in-person contact maintained by them except for infrequent correspondence or photo-exchange.

In the case of minimal information exchanged between both sets of parents, the closed adoption type is believed to have occurred; it typically suggests a complete breaking away from information exchange of any kind once the formalities are completed. It is especially evident in cases of neglect or child abuse with brith parent(s) often suggesting the clean break.

The last type of adoption procedure involves taking in a child for looking-after for a certain period, though legally they are not adopted. At times, foster parents can choose to get legal custody of a child in their care but usually they act as guardians till the time adoption is legal and official.

The Differences Between Domestic And International Adoption

One of the first decisions adoptive parents face is deciding between domestic and international adoption. Although international adoptions have been in the media spotlight recently because of celebrity international adoptions and other controversies, domestic adoption continues to be popular in the U.S. In fact, more children are adopted domestically in the U.S. than in all the other countries. When deciding between domestic and international adoption adoptive parents must consider factors such as age, health, costs, government issues, risk, travel, wait time, and the adjustment of the child. Age: In domestic adoptions it is typically easier to adopt newborns because adoptive parents can meet the birth parents, and can usually visit the hospital during the delivery. International adoptions typically involve older children over one year of age. This is usually the case because the laws of countries outside the U.S. may not allow adoption from outside the child's country of origin un...
