Adoption is legally defined as permanently placing a infant or child with one or both parents other than the birth parents. Adoption is considered the severing of the parental rights and responsibilities of the birth parents and ascribing those rights & responsibilities onto the adoptive parents. A large number of children are placed for adoption due to the true biological parents' decision that they are not able to take basic care of their baby. Other actual birth parents forcibly are stripped of their parental rights and their child or children are placed into foster care since they were abused or abandoned. The physical inability to have a biological child is a normal cause to adopt. A desire to adopt may also be related to the lack of a partner of the opposite sex or a lack of desire to use a surrogate or sperm donor. Single folks and same sex partners frequently adopt because of this. Processes for adopting a child can vary from one country to another. Generally when filling out an application to adopt, the potential adoptive parents will be considered for appropriate suitability.

Adopting from outside one's country are often more costly and often incur extra fees, including the adopters having to journey to the source nation. Citizens of the US represent the major share of international adoptive parents. A number of developted nations have relatively well thought out laws and procedures for out of country adopters to meet, while other countries don't. Adoption policies for each country can differ widely.Any conditions needed to begin the process of adopting internationally also can vary widely, depending upon the country of the adoptive parents. In the U.S., as a general rule, usually the first stage of the process is to choose an facilitator or agency to deal with. Each agency or facilitator works with a different set of countries, although some put their focus on a single country.
