Making Your Adoption Decision
The decision to place a child for adoption is a serious and life changing one, for both you and your child. You are most likely in a situation where you feel unable to parent your child or provide a life she/he deserves. Only you have the responsibility and the right to make a decision that will be in the best interest of your child and self.
By choosing adoption, you are taking control of your child’s future, giving them the gift of a loving, stable home that you choose for them.
Choosing Austin Adoption
Our Austin adoption staff is experienced in discussing your concerns and fears. We will review all your options (not just adoption) and provide counseling from a licensed therapist and/or licensed social worker.
Your involvement in the adoption process depends on your needs. Once you have chosen the adoptive family, we will work with both parties (birth parents and adoptive parents) to ensure that there is a mutual understanding as to the details of your adoption plan.
Your Adoption Rights
Remember, Adoption Choices of Texas advocates for you! And we believe you have the right to choose:
- The type of adoption – open adoption, semi-open or closed adoption
- Extent of contact with the adoptive family during the adoption process
- Adoptive family involvement at the hospital and your birth plan
- Frequency of information and photographs exchanged following placement
Making an adoption plan means you are taking control of your life, of your situation, and giving your child (and an adoptive family) a future. Adoption is not giving up even though it is said “giving your child up for adoption“.
