Adoption is a legal term for permanently placing a child with one or two parents other than the true biological parents. Adoption produces the severing of the parental responsibilities & rights of the true biological parents and handing over those rights and responsibilities onto the adopters. Numerous children, no matter their ages, are put up for for adoption because of the birth parents' acknowlegement that they are unfortunately unable to adequately take care of their child. Some actual biological parents involuntarily lose their parental rights and their child is placed in foster care since they were abused or neglected. The physical inability to biologically reproduce is a standard reason given to adopt. The wish to adopt can also be accompanied by the lack of a mate or partner or a decision not to use a surrogate or sperm donor. Single folks and same sex partners frequently adopt because of this. Procedures for becoming a legal adoptive parent change from one nation to another. Ordinarily when filling out an application to adopt, all potential adopters will be evaluated for appropriateness.

Adopting from outside one's country are frequently more costly and also often incur extra costs, including the adoptive parents necessarily being required to travel to the source nation. American citizens represent the vast majority of international adoptive parents. Many countries have reasonably well thought out laws, rules and procedures for foreign adopters to go along with, while others don't. Adoption procedures for each country can vary widely.Requirements needed to start the process of adopting internationally also can differ widely, depending on the nation of the adopters. In the US, as a general rule, usually the initial phase in the process is to find an adoption agency or facilitator to work with. Every facilitator or agency works with different countries, although a few place their focus on a lone country.
