From Wiktionary under the GNU Free Documentation License. Adoption is a process whereby a person assumes the parenting for another who is not kin and, in so doing, permanently transfers all rights and responsibilities from the original parent or parents. Unlike guardianship or other systems designed for the care of the young, adoption is intended to effect a permanent change in status and as such requires societal recognition, either through legal or religious sanction. Historically some societies have enacted specific laws governing adoption whereas others have endeavored to achieve adoption through less formal means, notably via contracts that specified inheritance rights and parental responsibilities. Modern systems of adoption, arising in the 20th century, tend to be governed by comprehensive statutes and regulations. Adoption has a long history in the Western world, closely tied with the legacy of the Roman Empire and the Catholic Church. Its use has changed considerably over the centuries with its focus shifting from adult adoption and inheritance issues toward children and family creation and its structure moving from a recognition of continuity between the adopted and kin toward allowing relationships of lessened intensity.

I'm proud of you for making a loving choice for your child. It was the hardest choice and I'm sure even harder after you gave birth. I am the mother of a 28 year old adopted daughter. I prayed frequently for my daughters biological mother and I suspect there's someone out there praying for you too.

Using example from the "stolen generation" and overseas adoption to support your arguments. Asked by steven_nguyen_8x - Fri Mar 7 03:13:51 2008 - - 2 Answers - 0 Comments A. I was under the impression that the Stolen Generation refers to Aboriginal Adoptees in Australia. Please correct me if I'm wrong. As a bi-racial adoptee myself who was raised by all white parents, I lost most of my culture. That brought HUGE disadvantages to me. I felt like I was white and didn't like my olive skin. I didn't know my families multiple languages, I didn't know even where or who I came from. It was hard to do something as simple as look in the mirror. The disadvantages would be: loss of heritage loss of language loss of religion loss of sense of self loss of genetic / cultural mirroring I think that when adopted within ones culture, by a family who gets it you can learn about your people. The advantages could possibly… [cont.] Answered by Gershom - Fri Mar 7 13:05:58 2008 What is the average cost of a newborn adoption through an adoption agency?
