Open Adoption:
You Make the Choices
Adoption for newborns and older children

The face of adoption today is far different than the adoptions of just thirty years ago. Adoption is now based on an open, honest relationship between the adoptive parents and the birthfamily. The blessing of an open adoption is shared with children from their earliest days.

Women facing an unplanned pregnancy today have many choices with open adoption. Creating an open adoption plan involves choosing their child's adoptive family, the level of future contact they want, and even what they wish their child's birth certificate to say. A birthparent may now feel more comforted as they see their child growing happy, healthy, and safe in the adoptive family that they themselves selected.

What does open adoption mean for adoptive families? It means raising their adopted child with honesty and sharing that their birthfamily loved them enough to choose life and choose adoption for them. It means knowing their child's medical history, a very valuable tool today. And it means being proud adoptive parents; treasuring the baby or child they have been chosen for.

Open Adoption is blessing both birth and adoptive families in so many ways. The end result of open adoption for the child is that there are more people in their live who love them -- something we can never have too many of. We encourage you to learn more about Open Adoption through the adoption articles and information contained on our website. Learn how you can touch the life of someone else through adoption, and how your life in turn may be blessed through adoption.

 
 
 
 
   
   
   
   
   
   
A Cherished Experience: A Birthmother's Story

I woke at 3:30 am, five days after my 18th birthday. Uncomfortable cramping kept me awake for the next hour, when I heard my dad stirring in my parent's room, getting ready for work. Manuevering out of my bed was difficult with a bulk accompanying me. It was with me everywhere I went for the past nine months, each day growing larger. I entered my parent's room and woke up my mom. An hour later, she confirmed what I was unsure of: I was in labor.
